[Ambrosia]

So I was just sitting around one evening and was struck by a mood.

I give to you....

Ambrosia's "Barely Legible" tileset!!


As you can see it's very small, but I've tested it a bit and it works perfectly in game, if you squint you can even read the text!
It is very much a WIP though, this is my first tileset and any constructive criticism is very welcome..

Here are some screenshots:

A pocket sized world for a pocket sized tileset


At the moment there are a few things that I know need tweaking/fixing, like the bins and barrels are all black, but if you spot anything else that you think needs a bit of tweaking just let me know

Nice, the 1x1 and 2x2 ones that I've seen were more of a goof but t his is actually usable, well done.

Thanks, I took the 1x1 sorts of tilesets as a sort of inspiration but wanted something usable... but only just

8x8 or 9x9 might be more useful? At least you could read the text properly.

I suppose that'd be easier on the eyes but I made this one to be mostly illegible, 5x5 is the smallest I could make it while still keeping in stuff like the two-lined walls, etc.
It's in no way meant to be a 'proper' tileset but it's usable, you just have to look really close

This reminds me of the kind of cramming you'd see on 8-bit machines that didn't have enough screen real estate for the author's vision.  One quibble: the 'w' needs to go one pixel to the right.  Otherwise fantastic job!

Just use TrueType mode if you insist on reading

Now to get Dwarf Fortress ported to the WonderSwan.

Hmm... 1920/5 = ...

384x216? I think that should do a good job of eliminating scrolling, but it may be had to tell what's going on
