This prevents the 3D elements from feeling jarring or out of place.

Textures are painted to align with the 2D backgrounds, and colors are carefully matched. This meticulous attention to detail ensures the new dimension feels like a natural extension of the world, not a foreign intrusion. ᱱᱚᱶᱟ ᱫᱚ ᱢᱤᱫ ᱥᱟᱶᱛᱮ ᱰᱤᱡᱟᱭᱤᱱ ᱨᱮ ᱢᱤᱫ ᱥᱟᱛᱟᱢ ᱠᱟᱱᱟ ᱡᱟᱦᱟᱸ ᱫᱚ ᱢᱮᱰᱤᱭᱚᱢ ᱠᱚ ᱯᱟᱨᱚᱢ ᱠᱟᱱᱟ, ᱵᱽᱨᱟᱱᱰᱤᱝ ᱨᱮ ᱵᱟᱯᱞᱟ ᱠᱟᱱ ᱥᱚᱛᱚᱨ ᱠᱚ ᱞᱮᱠᱟ, ᱡᱮᱞᱮᱠᱟ GWR ᱫᱚ ᱟᱭᱠᱚᱱᱤᱠ ᱞᱮᱱᱰ ᱨᱚᱵᱚᱨ ᱯᱚᱥᱴᱚᱨ ᱠᱚ ᱠᱷᱩᱞᱟᱹᱣ ᱠᱟᱛᱮ ᱧᱮᱞ ᱠᱟᱱᱟ᱾
