Dynamic sprite lighting - Sprite Lamp

Hello there!
Are there any possibility to have Sprite Lamp soft implemented in Risk of Rain? Maybe it was discussed by devs already?

 

looks cool but i doubt it

 

Why not? While creating normalmaps for all the mobs may take a while and not so easy, but using dynamic lights for maps itself may be done in a couple of days and drastically improve game look -> awesome update -> new buyers.

 

There are so few pixels on the sprites I'm not sure if this is even worth the effort.

Besides, they'd then have to decide on light source, it's a lot of extra work for adding very little to the game overall.

 

As i mentioned - characters are not the point, they are great the way they are now. But the level itself may be quite more interesting without extra work.

 

Here`s a brief example of results
