A much-appreciated adjustment!FrigginNeato2023-07-23Version 1.0

As someone who is photosensitive, I always appreciate when someone takes the time to create hacks like this. Legacy of the Wizard is one of my favorite games of all time. I had to be VERY careful playing it as a kid and had to hide it from my parents because the flashing could have triggered an episode.

As an adult, there are some things that I've learned to do in order to mitigate some of those effects in games if I know that they're coming, but not having to go through an insane ritual to play a game or be concerned that some flashing may catch me off guard is some much welcome peace.

Thank you for taking the time to create this hack!
