I was just browsing through my files of this mod and I suddenly came across the 'Character Select' screen from the v.1 version of the game. That image is 10 years old now. So I made a comparison image where you see how the 'Character Select' screen has evolved throughout the years.
With the 2009 version, I didn't even bother to remove the title screen behind the character portraits and the artstyles of the 'Toads and Dragons don't match at all
The 2019 version is much better, if I say so myself. I've spend a good amount of time working just on that image
