warning: The following post will attempt to convince you to make some simple 8x8 tiles for me. They don't take long to make at all, and I think the natural variance in lots of different tiles from lots of different people will make things interesting. I'll probably end up being super picky but that's okay. CRAZY MODE COMMENCE (you can safely skip to the screenshot if you feel interested already)!


Also: MAKE ME SOME 8x8 TILES! I'm entirely capable of making my own but I thought it might be kind of cool if some peopled wanted to give me some pretty pictures. THE RULES? Keep them simple (duh. they're 8x8) and generally high-contrast, low-colour (so that they fit in). Also make sure they look good or at least alright in huge clusters of a single tile, because I have absolutely no patience for a thousand sides that need to be put together -just so-, ok?
But. I have made two very simple tiles so far and I want to see what kind of creativity can be bled out of the 8x8 tilemaking community even though nothing like that exists. IF YOU MAKE MORE TILES THE GAME WILL HAVE MORE GRAPHICAL AREA VARIANCE. DON'T FEEL LIMITED TO SOLID TILES. BACKGROUND TILES? COOL. USABLE TILES LIKE SPIKES? JUST DANDY. QUACK BUTTONS AND LOLLIPOPS? MAYBE PUSHING IT.

THAT IS HOW ROMAN NUMERALS AND ACRONYMS WORK SHUT UP

oh, and a screenshot because everyone loves those right


BY THE WAY.
I'm making this for THE GAME PROTOTYPE CHALLENGE (#5). I realize I make a thread about this basically every time it's on and that is because IT IS AWESOME. This time around the themes are

COMPANION
    &
RISING

so if you draw any inspiration from that go right ahead and do a little jig and then make a game and earn my undying respect :3

FINAL NOTE:
Try to stick tiles together (no separator pixel line) if possible.

<----

They look really cool, and the right amount of different from one another. awesome.

Center tile needs some tweaking, probably.

Also, it is very ugly.



...actually, looking at your requirements again, I'm not sure these fit.

I'll make another set, just to be sure.

I tried. If you can tell what it is then I succeeded, but I doubt it.

New demo (first post) uploaded.
Will add a timestamp.

Have not used any of the new tiles yet, but rest assured they will be used to great effect :3

edit :: I am leaving for the weekend in six hours. I'll probably check this thread again if anyone wants to cast some last tiles at me but I do not imagine anyone will and that is implausibly fine. x3

I have that problem as well, and now that I think about it, I've used that button combination in other games, so it shouldn't be my keyboard.
The easy temporary solution is to use X since that does all the same things as space.

O:

I do. I do like it. Thanks ^^

At this point I do not know how much I will be able to use but my gosh I will try my best.


Nugsy: mokesmoe has it right. You can use a wide variety of alternate balloon-hold keys which will be telegraphed better in the future.


Progress is good.
