I'm in love. Looks delightful.

Please tell me you're using 8-bit Chiptunes music for this thing. That would make this game hit every last one of my indie-game-lover buttons like a cat climbing on the keyboard. I'm squirming in my seat in delight just thinking about it.

I'm glad you love it.

I'll be using 8-bit music hopefully, the whole quest idea is still being fleshed out though. This quest might not even be in sideview, but the graphical style will stay, I think it looks good and gives the quest personaility. Not to mention it makes it really easy for me to create custom tiles.

Never done classic before lol It seems like I'm missing so many great tiles. >.<

[Jared]

Very nice, Franky. You use Classic well!



And random screen just because.

I think...

I think I'm in love. <3

[Jared]

Aww, Shane. Thank you! See anything that could be improved?

[Shane]

Remove that wooden fence at the top. And add some snow.

[Jared]

I can do that!



I need to try to work on dungeons more...

[Omega]

Like Shane said, that wooden fence stood out the most. otherwise I'd suggest maybe a different more twilight looking palette.

As for the dungeon screen I don't like how the borders are used, specially around the chest. The ends look like cutoff. Other then that nothing seem wrong!

Thank you guys! I fixed the area around the chest also

How can I make the dungeon screen pop, though? :/

[Omega]

I'd say remove / replace those particular cave tiles because they look awkward. I never really use them. I did once in the descendent lands tileset but never went anywhere with it. lol

1. Try adding small patches of color, like one living tree.
2. Add something crazy and unique. I don't know what.

[Jared]

The ones around the chest? Yeah, I didn't like them much either. xD



It's fun making screens without making it a commitment! Here's a screen in some sort of swampy-islandy area.

I like those Mountain tiles it looks like you can jump down, did you make those yourself? Great looking screen by the way, nothing stands out more then it should. It all blends well.

Edit: Those trees could probably be a tiny bit darker in color. Though I don't know how tedious that'd be for you, I've been rom hacking lately and finding it not very hard to alter palettes. if you can easily do it I'd suggest that. otherwise things are fine as is.

Thank you! No, they came in the PR tileset.

And I'd edit the colors if this were a real quest. But it's just a little screen for fun (And skill).
