Prior to steam release I exclusively used ASCII (standard curses_800x600). In steam version I use default graphics, because for some reason I couldn't get used to the new interface (map is ok) in ASCII.
Agreed. Also, the game's screen squeezing when in ASCII and no zoom were too jarring for me! I wish there was a classic UI mode too, because ASCII mode in the Steam release seems a little bit underbaked right now.

Right now zooming in/out or scaling the UI in the premium version results in textures being blurry and it's especially visible on higher resolutions.
Do you plan to add nearest neighbor scaling in the future?

Yeah, I'm doing that. Different scale modes are part of the plans for the SDL2 update I'm doing.
Please include 4:3 support too! I sometimes play on a 1024x768 CRT for that good ole glow and have noticed UI scaling issues.
It also seems like on startup the game only uses the last remembered resolution, even if that resolution isn't the resolution of the current display (the one you set as "use as my main display" in windows settings). I'm not sure if this is intended behavior or not, but I've had windows freak out and sometimes crash explorer when it sets my 20 year old CRT to 16:9 1920x1080 display mode on DF startup.
