[MOCK] - New Tileset Style

$t3v0

Awesome Bro

Hello again,

I've been working with my tilesetting today, and I thought I'd share the outcome. Basically, I've been wanting to do my own tileset series for a LONG time now, but I've always been put off by the aligning when it comes to using it within the engine. But after a little practise and help from an old member...It's suddenly become a whole lot easier.

What you see below is a compilation of objects i drew and coloured ( quick and poorly ) today, just to get some practise with how i want my tilesets to be. Basically, they're hand drawn, anti alias instead of pixels, basically. But don't take the below results too seriously, I just drew, coloured and shaded with one single layer for each ( Which isn't my usual process ):

It's tile-able and ready to go, it's just missing the vital walls and flooring to go with it. But as I'm still in the early stages of this style, so is the outcome...so there's nothing i can do about it. Although, If you feel this "cartoony" look and feel could be pulled off quite well, I'd consider creating a series of them in my spare time.

Lastly, the character template I'm aiming these for is still unsure. At the moment I'd say they stand at half-kaizer. But I don't know if a custom template is in order to keep the theme consistent.

Anyway, Take care for now!

Looks pretty sweet. A game using that style would be interesting. I think I seen a game around here that looked similar to that.

@ Redattacker - Well it doesn't look all that tempting as it stands up there now. But with enough organisation and planning, It will be worth using for sure!

@ Shifter - Yeah man, It was more straight forward than i thought. Maybe i should have at least tried it before posting a topic, eh? :P. Thanks for the support too! It means a lot to a sad bastard like myself.

Looks interesting, It would be easier for me to really judge it though if you made a map of it.

I like the style though, I experimented with a Cell shaded version of the RTP myself but got bored :P
 
I like it enough- but I still think that your redone RTP would be more useful to people. Once you release characters with this though it could really take off.

@ Camisado - I did, but there were no walls or floors so it didn't look at all right. Do your own map and see for yourself. It's all ready to use, just needs to be imported.

@ Despain - The RTP-remake did have good feedback, and you're right, It would be useful. But the thing is, it's just what they already have...but cartoony. That doesn't stop me from carrying it on, I'm just taking the opinions of others seriously. Where if I did the RTP-remake ASWELL as my own tilesets, It could really take off, Like you said yourself.

I'll have a sketch with the characters tomorrow ( just got home from work ). I know you're pretty nifty with characters, So I could use as much help as you can give. Maybe even give it a go, Despain ;)
