Question

This pattern appears in all the rooms where the tiles fly up and attack you, and I've never really understood what it was.

Anybody here know?

It's not more than just a stylized death skull with crossed bones (just simplified quite a bit). Beware of my horrible drawing skills:

	Is that really all it is? I always imagined it was some sort of bow with a partial arrow knocked... – espais Dec 1 '12 at 20:33

	Yep, just a skull. Great work with the overlay. :) – CyberSkull Dec 1 '12 at 23:01
