May the strong religious focus of Grimstone be a mockery of Nintendo of America's censorship of Christian imagery during the NES days?
Back in the NES days games that were localized for American audience heavily censored any overt Judaeo-Christian imagery or reference to death. Churches no longer featured crosses, the Death spell was renamed to “RUB”, and the Kill spell was renamed to “XXXX”.
UFO 50 games notably don’t really touch upon Christian stuff at all. Except one game - Grimstone. It’s a very Final Fantasy-like JRPG set in Wild West except the continent somehow ended up in Hell itself. The local religion is very Christian-like with angels and holy water and and and BIGGAN!!
Interestingly, Grimstone shares its setting with two other UFO 50 cartridges - Devilition and Rail Heist but neither game feature that much religious references except for demons in the former.
Now, it can be just a coincidence but it’s interesting to think about nonetheless.

Honestly, focus making your character bug-eyed is ridiculous and I'm all here for it. .

I don't want to jinx anything, but Sprite has had a fair few nights with longer stretches of sleep. This means I've also had longer stretches of sleep and despite being up at 6am this morning, I've felt able to do yet more editing on Grimstone 2. I'm about halfway through chapter five between all the little bits I've managed in the last week or so.
