If you follow my (now-)friends-only account, you may remember me wondering how I can make vertical transitions between rooms in a dungeon flow well. I didn't want to use elevators, because Zelda II's lifts are so iconic, and I'm already copying so much from that game.
But, I said "heck it." Elevators just plain make sense. But I decided to put a visual spin on it -- these have a much more elaborate design (especially that ironwork at the top), and will be pulley-operated. I'm going to include an animation of Zalia working the pulleys. Probably with an exaggerated pose and sweat flying off her head 😅
As far as the player is concerned, they work exactly like Zelda II's lifts do (press up or down on the d-pad to move; let go to stop), but visually, they're going to have a distinct flavor that works for Enigma Heart.
