I always find rabidwolf's stuff to be really fun to play with. This file includes a bunch of new/altered graphics and a few interesting scripts.

Rabid added a fuse to the red barrel sprite. So if you wanted you could make it into a timed explosion sort of thing. He also included a script that causes the barrel to blow up if hit with a fireball or a hellfire. I think the idea here is that the red barrel is filled with gunpowder. It's not hard to find a use for this.

There's a collection of colored bottle/elixir inventory graphics that will definitely come in handy if you're planning on creating a unique sort of potion.

The misc folder is pretty weird. It does include what I believe is the tree from iThe Savebot Massacre/i with the girl impaled through a branch. So that's pretty cool. There's also a man with a fishing pole, some altered posters, and a couple of other things of less importance(to me at least).

The monster blood folder is pretty neat though. If you want the blood of a dead monster without the monster, this is your ticket. Some of them look better than others.

The biggest aspect of this file is probably the four new item scripts included. These are the attack speed potion- which increases the speed at which dink is able to swing/attack. The quick fire bow- which removes the need to charge the bow allowing you to rapid fire arrows. The four way axe- which is basically just a thrown axe that flings four ways simultaneously in directions 2, 4, 6, and 8. Lastly is the warped fireball which comes with a really cool graphics sequence. This baby is kind of similar to the rain spell if shorter lived.

Rabid has also included a tileset of what are supposedly ruins. It looks kind of like a marsh to me but I could see them being used for ruins. I haven't seen a texture like it used before so it's kind of unique.

Lastly there is a small gold heart sequence. You know, in case the big gold heart is too big. Rabid says that it'd be good to use if you wanted to increase dink's health by a small increment like one or two.

Anyways, this file is a box of various stuff. I think it's a good file to just have, but maybe I'm just a dev hoarder.
