SUBMIT ANY ISSUES USING THE LINK ABOVE

Randomized, 9 material themes and 6 custom post processing profiles for stages 1-6, doesn't work on modded stages.

Configurable, can disable each custom post processing profile. Disabling all of the profiles will break the mod.

If you don't like the variant, set_scene sceneName (using the mod DebugToolkit) and it'll give a new randomized theme.

Stage materials and post process profile print to the console on stage load. alt + ctrl + ~ to open the console
