I really love the rainbow grass in Dark, and the giant spotlights on the mushrooms (also a colorable light cone item would be really nice for condos). I’m hoping the track layout for MoonCity isn’t finalized yet though cuz I’m not a fan of all of the long straight paths that it has. I get that it’s supposed to be a city and cities have straight roads but idk, it just doesn’t seem like it’d be too fun to play on. I like the art for the track though so far it looks neat ---
