It almost makes me want to start using a botany mod,
just so I can play with all my colorful plants.

Anyway,
vermin magic!



Snakes, squirrels and frogs.

That's right.
I can turn a squirrel into a frog.


I made some normal trees,
to be used for maps.



Boring.
But necessary.

I'm glad you worked out how to do that magic because I'm a bear of very little brain and I couldn't get my head around how the colours combined, beyond making gold nuggets _slightly more gold_ because they were golden.

Excellent. This is glorious. You're onto a winner :)

Snakes, squirrels and frogs.
Wow... I cannot describe how awesome is it.

Also mind if I suggest you to use a darker tile with some visible waves for the sand/water texture (tiles 126 and 247) to make them a)look like sand/water; b)make them better distinguishable from walls.

Okay, now THIS is fun!



The new underground is gonna be pretty.
Almost 200 different mushrooms from 1 tile.
I will add a mushroom for almost each combination for you :P.

P.S. You're awesome. You idea is really creative, I wonder why nobody has used it before. I tried and it works perfectly:
*** Spider/ant on the same tile:


Thank you :).

P.P.S. On your pics it looks like the both colors are shaded. How do you achieve it? AFAIK one of them should be unshaded purple.

I don't think it will be an issue. What you're seeing isn't actually grey, but transparent.
Those tiles will be mostly black in-game.

And thank you! It is pretty cool, though, right?
Hopefully people will start jumping on the bandwagon!

Heh. = P
Pretty cool, right?
Semi-transparent black pixels.
That's the beauty of using a .PNG,
rather than a bitmap on magenta.

It's also the reason that I'm waiting for the merge.

Ah I forgot that's it for the merged version :). I thought that it's some visual trick on bmp which makes an eye to see them shaded (I didn't zoom yet).

You, sir, are genius. You've found something that nobody has in several years.
I can't use your tileset because my screen resolution is not that big but I can't wait till others start using the same methods.

I like the visual effect of the snake -> frog, but I think you have the potential to make snakes look way cooler. :|

Yeah, I probably do.

But what does the game have?... Fire snakes. And worms.

I don't feel that those two vermin deserve a tile of their own.
Wouldn't you rather have another type of tree, or something?
