well here is my problem, i wanted to start drawing some tiles for the ground in a platform game peice i was doing. and i figured should do more levels so i wanted to do these levels and couldn't think of how they would look. so i went looking for some work other people have done to help give me ideas, and couldn't find anything of any help. so i guess i'm asking you if you could help and give e some links or pictures which will help me? |

Really??? Make a search on the PJ gallery on ' http://www.pixeljoint.com/pixels/new_icons.asp?search=mockup&dimo=%3E%3D&dim=10&colorso=%3E%3D&colors=2&tran=&anim=&iso=&av=&owner=0&d=&dosearch=1&ob=search&action=search - mockup ', maybe 'platform' too, then on this forum, then on http://www.wayofthepixel.net/pixelation/index.php - Pixellation , then check actual games such as http://www.nitrome.com/ - Nitrome , then... There is a http://www.pixeljoint.com/pixelart/2014/Video_Games.htm - Games category on PJ, I still don't know how you browse cats though, you probably can't. Results are largely similar to the 'mockup' search anyway. |

yeah i've tried doing all that, i wouldn't be here if i hadn't tried that. pixelation has like 1 or two platform view tiles of snow. but they aren't of much help. as for warehouse/factory tiles they are basically non existent. so can anyone help me? |

Factory tiles are difficult, it's all dependent on what you want the floor to be made from. So probably concrete. Basically, grey spiced up by crates and stains and spills :P
As for snow, I've been having a play around with a multi-purpose tile (Recolourable) and am currently here with a snow one. It's not drifts or anything, and the crusty texture's probably too much. 
(I developed that from an earlier piece in which I managed to do some decent snow, here) 
(And sorry for the plugs XP ) |

| thanks for the reply, but this only works for top-down view or isometric. i'm making this peice in platform view. |

Sorry, I hadn't read the title of your post. Still, there's what you're looking for at Nitrome's - unless you want a mockup with both snow and factory, that is ;) http://www.nitrome.com/games/toxic/ - http://www.nitrome.com/games/toxic/ http://www.nitrome.com/games/rustyard/ - http://www.nitrome.com/games/rustyard/ http://www.nitrome.com/games/frostbite2/ - http://www.nitrome.com/games/frostbite2/ http://www.nitrome.com/games/snowdrift/ - http://www.nitrome.com/games/snowdrift/ |
