helloo all,

here is some thing i did over the summer. i chose not to post it because i was going to make some sprites to go with the tile set. well i know i probly wont get to the sprites for a while, so i am posting this alone.

this is the product of playing metriod games for the gameboy advance. I liked the style of the tiles so i decided to make my own. it is all original.

I would like some feedback. Like, do you guys like the colors, do you have any advice to make them look more rock like?


hmmmmm... maybe i should have left it with a background, it hurts the eyes with transperency

edit: here it is with a background and demonstration of the tiles

I would tone down the amount of contrast between the yellow and the black. It burns the eyes.

I'm really tired and about to go to bed, but i must say these look tasty. Perhaps tone the second lightest colour down a tad, as i think it blends a bit too much with the lightest. Good work.

I likes eet. I agreed with Larwick even before reading his comment so there might be a problem with that shade :/

Yeah I'll third the notion on darkening that tone. I think you should actually shade the tiles, as in pick a "global lightsource" such as the top-right, and shade the tiles accordingly. ie the ceiling rocks will be in shadow, etc.

That should help to tone the mirror-factor down a bit. But even then I'd suggest differentiating the tiles a bit to make the tileset more variated and interesting.

Otherwise they are really quite nice.
