These all look great. I can't wait for the next version and this tile set to come out.

Neither can I!

The tileset is updated again.
The ,.;' ground tiles are nicer now.

There are a couple other new tiles in there as well.
Downwards staircases and barrels and bins and stuff.

You can slap that .png into 40d if you want to check it out.
Otherwise, I'm hoping the merge is just another day or two yet.


Oh, here's a question:
What do you guys think about militia captains and militia commanders?
Will they maintain their weapon profession if I don't assign them a specific sprite?

If so, would you rather they use a weapon sprite or a new (weapon-generic) captain/commander sprite?

Aha!

Bit of a stroke of genius here.
This is how I'm gonna do trees.

Check it out:



Since my backgrounds are already mostly black,
I can just paint that in, which lets me use the
tile background color as the color of the trunk!

So now, the trunks of trees will always be brown,
and one tile covers a tree through all the seasons!
This way I'll be able to make half a dozen different
trees, so the forests should look pretty awesome.

Here's the same theory applied to gems!



This is gonna be pretty cool.

Just going to drop by for a quick second (heh heh, second is a measurement of time so there can't be a "quick second", heh heh I made a funny) to say that I like your dwarf figures very, very much, and that the rest is Ok (really "above average", but I fancy myself to be a harsh critic). :D

Oh, and also, sorry if someone's already mentioned this or you personally did, but what about animals and creatures other than dwarves and skeletons/zombies? I don't happen to see them either in you pictures or on "the list".

Animals are on the list, yeah. Just not that list.

They're under "eventual goals", right above that.

Oh man holy smokes!
So are mushrooms randomized or something? So a field of plump helmets could have many different colors?

Nah. Plump helmets will always be purple.

But unless you come up with 200 different species of fungus,
you can make each and every type look distinct from the rest.

 8)   I'm pretty sure this is the coolest tile I've ever made.

One more example before I head to bed:

Dragonflies, fairies and butterflies.



Tile magic is my new thing.
So many tiles benefit from a second color!
I'm gonna do all my plants like this tomorrow!

I'm also standardizing my tileset some more.
By tomorrow night it will be (more) beautiful.

Good night, forum.
