Minimalistic tileset

Liking all these zombies. Keep going! I’ll use it when it’s complete, at least.

Malcolm:

I’m not sure that I understood. Sorry, I do not know much English and I use Google translator.

Thank you for your patience. I’ll try to be clear so I don’t confuse the translator.

Malcolm:

If I understood correctly, you want to Brute look like a Hulk, and Hulk was even greater. That she standing bent over, like a gorilla on all fours? It’s an interesting thought. Or that it is larger than a single tile? Is it possible to do? I have no idea how to do it!

You have it, a gorilla is a good model. I don’t think there is a way to have the hulk use multiple tiles. I meant to have it fill up the tile. I’m not sure if that works, you’re the artist

The boomer should look fat, or at least thick.

I’ll try to make it even more fat. Like a Baron Vladimir Harkonnen![/quote]
Yes! Baron Harkonnen is perfect!

I’m not sure having the bile coming out of the spitter works, my first thought was “zombie duck?!?”.

Ok, I get it. Zombie Duck is funny, but not right. I tried to do it: “This zombie’s mouth is deformed into a round spitter”.
Ok! I realized my mistake! In the Russian translation of it was called: “Плевательная установка” (spitter launcher? о_О). I understood it as proboscis/long tube.[/quote]
I understand, that makes sese too. I thought of it as a round hole in its face instead of a normal mouth, but not protruding. I’m not sure how to make it better either.

Thank you from me and from the translator;)

Understood. I'll try it. Not sure what will happen well. If it is bad, the Hulk leave as is, and Brute make more muscle.

I understand, that makes sese too. I thought of it as a round hole in its face instead of a normal mouth, but not protruding. I'm not sure how to make it better either.

What is the "sese"? Translator confused. Hmm. When I read the description in English, I also thought it was possible hole on the face. I'll think about how to draw it better.

That’s a typo, “that makes sense too” is what it should have said <_<

This tileset looks amazing and I agree that the zombies are great. When will it be available?

Thank you! I can not say exactly when it will be ready. I have a lot of other things, and over the tileset I have just started working. But if the idea is all so liked will have to finish

dwarfkoala · 2013-09-28T16:51:52.000Z

I’ll contribute to the likes. Good work.

Nighthawk · 2013-09-28T19:54:51.000Z

This is what I have always wanted. Please, make this a full tileset.

Seconded.

Tchey · 2013-09-29T13:58:28.000Z

I join the mass to say i like it a lot.

FunsizeNinja123 · 2013-09-29T14:18:30.000Z

You have my internetz.

akhier_the_dragon_he · 2013-10-03T21:01:42.000Z

Has been a few days and I know you said you where busy but is there anything new to report on this? Also even though it is not complete can you show us what you have so far?

dotASC · 2013-10-03T21:35:11.000Z

I don’t often use tilesets in my roguelikes, but when I do I make it a minimalistic tileset.

Seriously, fantastic small scale work. I’ve worked in similiar mediums where size limits cause difficulties, and you have done AMAZING on those avatar graphics. You have implied large amounts of detail with very few pixels. I’m impressed!

moist_zombie · 2013-10-05T02:48:39.000Z

Very good! Waiting on you to post a download link to it so I can harvest it for trying my own 11x11 tiles.

Derschlact · 2013-10-15T04:19:22.000Z

Posting to watch

moist_zombie · 2013-10-15T20:12:54.000Z

Next time you log on would you mind posting your current progress? That way people from the community can carry on the work even if you do not have the time yourself

Oragepoilu · 2013-10-18T22:09:29.000Z

Can’t do anything but agree with ppl here, would really be something great to have a minimalist tileset.

timtek · 2013-10-19T09:29:21.000Z

I really like what’s been shown so far. I never use tileset’s, I’m old and love my ascii, but I think I’d be willing to give this one a try. It doesn’t spoil the pictures in my head and still maintains good visual representation of the game information.

Mr_Lolz · 2013-10-25T15:39:00.000Z

also very interested in this - really like deons tileset but I only have a small laptop screen and lose too much viewport using 16x16 pixel

If someone wants to test my WIP fake-ASCII tileset it’s always here: http://cesspit.net/misc/10x10.zip

I update it from time to time.[/quote]

Someone else pointed this out to me Its a 10x10 tileset made by HRose, who deserves roses thrown at their feet, and he or she should also make a separate post for this (it may even have one, though my searching didn’t turn one up)… I was unaware it existed, but even in its current state its pretty awesome as is… Hopefully they’ll continue work, or maybe they are as we speak
