of tiling

here's some proper 32x32 tiles

I'm pretty happy with them considering I've never made tiles before this

Edit: a quick and simple mockup...

i'll give it a shot, though, when i have a day off...

but yeah, those look a lot better than the ones that were going to be used. kudos

I think they suit the style better and are easier on the eye than sharks. A bit of cleaning up and it should look great. I'm sure if jalonso had some spare time he could do wonders with that background...

WOah woah woah. I think the overdetailing in the not-so-important areas of the tiles distracts from the image as a whole. I much prefered the earlier ones because they seemed calm and not overdone. Obviously they could do with some more detail, and perhaps some hints of rock shapes in the side. But i think what you've done lately to it is a tad too much. Loving the hearts though.

myself, i dont find it too busy, however i can see how it might be that way for someone else...

but i love how you did these, maybe they can be saved? maybe if you take away some of the contrast?

i also just noticed you have a vertical line going on, if you look at the right end pieces, you can see when put together, they create a noticable line.

I agree with larwick I think you need to find a happy medium between the first set and this one. I also see the line that Ensellitis is talkin about.

yeah, see it too now that you mention it.

As for the overdetailing, do you think it might be because the rocks are too concentrated together? What if they were larger and not so jumbled? I'll try and get some happy medium tiles going on sometime today.

They're there. Not sure why you can't see them. I suppose you can just follow the url to my photobucket account. Odinno. But the pic is in your quote even so....

I agree with Larwick as well. As i first saw that screenshot sample, my eyes went to the awesomely done ice tiles :P

Which is good in a way, and bad in another. Dopplegangers' tiles are something simple you can rest your eyes on.

edit: the icicles over the blue rocks stick out too much.. I say take off the black outline under them, and maybe the drop shadow too.

A lot of people here are 15 and use paint :P
Oh, and try not to use the .jpg extention for pixel art, .gif or .png work a lot better. Jpeg ruines the pics :P

Mhm, no jpegs. Also, this is in the wrong section, seeing as what you've added is a sprite, it should be in the sprite thread. Nice lineart, but it could use some form (shading etc) because right now it looks quite flat. Perhaps in-keeping with the style would need you to make all the outlines black aswel (with some light selout/aa here and there, i guess).

And yeah dude, there are plently of younger pixellers here, and i only use MSPaint, and i find it fine. Of course, it's not the best, but it's still useable.

by the way great job wqith the tiles :) amm some icey (very icey like ice cubes) would be fun.. if he slides on em.. so it would be harder to go over them
