That's pretty scary, if I must do say that that is so myself, indubitably!

[Ironhand]

Whatever.

Here's a teaser of the tiling stone tiles I've been making:



A couple of them (mostly the one in the middle)
are based on ones that I took from other people.
But most of them I slapped together from scratch.

I should have a pretty nearly finished tileset soon.
It's pretty sweet. Looking forward to showing it off.

[Cheddarius]

Ooooo.

[Maldevious]

Lookin' good. Very exciting.

Hello,

is it possible to implement your actuall dwarfs?
i would like to merge your dwarfs with mayday till u are finished if this is allowed

the second point is i want to see how they look ingame i tryed some graphics mod who looked good as png or bmp but bad ingame

thanks for your advice

[Ironhand]

Mayday's set is 16x16. My dwarfs are 18x18.

So unless you resize one or the other, not so much.

However, I plan to release a test version as soon as the merge happens.
So hopefully just a couple days and you'll get the whole package at once.

[blub-dwarf]

woho that would be cool
i will be waiting ^^

[Outcast Orange]

I am also watching this excitedly.

I posted the PNG tileset as it is, if you want to check it out.

There's 256 tiles there.
A lot of them I drew from scratch.
A lot of them I swiped from other sets.

It's gonna get edited before the release, particularly:
- O is gonna get merged into the walls a bit,
- the walls themselves are gonna get a bit of texture
- I'm not happy with the generic grey/greyer/greyest tiles
- What do people do with the toy tile? I made a puzzlebox...
- Barrels might need some work if they don't use a BG color
- A couple are blurry because I just scaled them up from other
 sets (the floor hatch and the downward staircase, for example)

Anyway, feel free to admire what's there.
I'm looking forward to trying this out in-game!

Arena mode teaser!



Are you pumped? I'm pumped.

[Maldevious]

I, for one, am pumped.

[Ironhand]

I just realized how much my walls look like they're made of foamcore.

But whatever. I think they're nice.

I slapped that texture onto the font, as well.
And ramps. And punctuation. It's cool. Check it out.



Dwarfs aren't in yet. That's just a manual proof of concept.
...the concept that the dwarfs look good with the tiles. = P

Anyway, I might work on letter spacing a little bit.
I didn't pick the best font for a monospace game.

You suggested making some creatures small in comparison to the mega ones, is there a way to make one tile spill over into others? It would certainly make large creatures look better

[Ironhand]

I wish. That would be sweet.
I could give megabeasts wings and tails and stuff.

But alas, no. The only multi-tile creatures are wagons.

[blub-dwarf]

the dwarfs look realy good ingame

is it just this wall or wont there be a bevel?
