Mmmm, pizza. 
I remember "Dink Goes Boating" looking weird when playing in truecolor. I forgot if this was while playing freedink or 1.08.

Late edit:
Seth removed load_tile() when he made DinkHD, probably because they uses palette loading, and HD dropped non-truecolor as well. Apparently this causes "Bored of the Rings" to bug out, according to its release notes. I'm not totally convinced you can't have load_tile() with truecolor-only. Other on-the-fly graphics loading functions don't need to bother about palettes either. This may be worth looking into, though.

Later edit:
Of course I meant that Boating looks weird in truecolor. It even gives a message when you load the game.
