Tileset

'hezkore.png' is a 16x16 tilset based on Kenran and Nice curses with my own edits and additions.
The most common items has object graphics and does not replace the bitmap font, keeping all text readable.

Colors

'colors.txt' provides softer colors than the default theme.
The colors are a bit more washed out than the original colors, but still provides good contrast between all of the different shades.

Font

'font.ttf' is 'PxPlus_ToshibaSat_9x16.ttf'.
'font_alt.ttf' is 'PxPlus_ToshibaTxL1_8x16.ttf'.
Both from oldschool-pc-fonts.
