Welcome to HBGames, a leading amateur game development forum and Discord server. All are welcome, and amongst our ranks you will find experts in their field from all aspects of video game design and development.

Tyke template...think Snes.

@The Urchin: You didn't make the walls any smaller, you just added a wooden bar on top of it o.O, and it would be really odd to have like 1,5 tile walls(and the roof autotile would have to be in layer 2)

@geox: You should probably outline those yellow thingers in the road, and the perspetive on the lamp thing seems wrong.

And here's the tileset(once again), with some sligth tweaks:

Added closed door, some dithering here and there, and another window.

Edit:
@lexy: THat looks like Alien Hominid! That was one badass game...

I did have a look over those earlier, however I actually thought that some of the 'futuristic' stuff was pretty retro. The consoles looked like something you'd see in an 80s military drama or something :D When I picture futuristic I don't think we'll be using many mechanical interfaces like knobs, buttons and levers, display screens or speakers. Our modern technology is already starting to outpace that stuff. I also don't think we'll adopt the stark utilitarian style of the 80s permanently and seriously doubt everything is going to be clean, blank and shiny. So traditional future stuff isn't really doing it for me. I liked some of the stuff in Minority Report if you saw it, but even that is fairly near future. It's hard to even imagine what we might have in another two or three hundred years if we continue at this breakneck pace; genetic engineering, nano and quantum technology are likely to supplant mechanical and electrical engineering entirely, and our stuff is as likely going to be manufactured by clouds of nanos or assembled organically as it is by the hands of men or machines.

Transmetropolitan, if you've heard of it, has some cool ideas. It's a comic book series, and I'm not really into comics, but I flipped through a couple issues and really dug it.

I guess the reason far future isn't really my bag is that it's so unknowable that anything you can possibly predict is likely to be old hat or proved impossible, impractical or stupid halfway between here and and the time period you predict it in. At least we can get some kind of a grip on what might happen in the next 20-30 years, and we'll be alive to find out if we're right to boot :D

Campy space sci-fi is totally different of course, it's more like Science Fantasy really. But I also am not really into that for the reason that I find the idea that there are tons of humanoid alien races (that look just like us except for some funny thing on their heads) running around the universe just waiting to trade tea and debate politics with us or something pretty silly. The only space sci-fi that I've really liked lately are Firefly and Cowboy Bebop, both of which leave aliens out of the picture.
 
geox ill help too with your tileset I can think of good futuristic things
*starts working on it*

EDIT:http://i187.photobucket.com/albums/x182/blitzlance/Future1-1WIP.png[/IMG]I added a closed door, floating chair, floating bar table,
a computer screen from kiearaphoenixes tileset i edited and floor
 
I really agree with nyphx thats why if you look at my tileset as i had it, it wouldnt seem super futuristic and pretty modern but with slight changes.
thats why i digressed some ideas

Right on. Well like I said I'm definitely interested in doing some cyberpunk and other near future stuff. I'm workin on a really complicated (for tyke) character right now that I'm not going to post since it's not my design. Once I get that done I'll probably get back to work on more modern stuff, and if I get any ideas I'll do some cyberpunk too.
 
Gunga: It is shorter, half a tile shorter actually. The problem wasn't the scale or anything it was just to tall. Now it matches the tykes size a whole lot better. With the bar at the top you don't need to use the roof auto tile.
 
Hmm, a tactics battle system sounds perfect for tyke, earlier today i was thinking of making a request for a tyke cms for a party of three (don't know if it can be done with four), where you have the characters walking around in a circle same as the character preview in rm2k3.

A dashing temp of tyke will not work out too well imo, i think it's just too small for it but anyone is welcome to try it, i'm not going to right now because of the Tyke2, so sorry peeps.
