New auto tile system on blocks. I haven't finished working on it yet, but it looks good already.

Development continues...

I plan to make a cave biome of glowing crystals. The caves in this biome will be large, instead of the usual stone will be something else. Here's a little screenshot. By the release, everything could change radically.
