Mirage Source

hey was taking a shot at making some tiles. and ive gotten this so far. Im not so sure about the sides of the cliff. but i wasnt sure about how to make it look like it was diagonal anyway. Any suggestions?

you need more contrast

the grass of the dirt part. If its the grass im not changin it cuz that is the style im goin for. But the dirt on the other hand is another matter...

Don't just do lazy re-colours for new tiles. Water looks nothing like grass, so texture it to look different.

thats the problem though i just cant seem to texture water right but im still working on it.

seriously, you need some contrast. Your game looks (to me) like you are just using 1 color tiles.

_________________

huh? well i can see at least two shades of green brown and blue. but the grass and water isnt supposed to be that much contrast. thats the style i like to do.

Agreed. Even if you're going for the washed out look, that'll just look like block colour on some monitors.

mk taken into consideration, ill see what i can do.

Also cliff faces and edges of water are not perfectly straight and are rugged and bumpy.

Yeah you need to add shadows to the rocks or something because it looks really flat.

_________________

yes i know. flat was kinda the style i was goin for. but ill give it a try.

Woot, I offered a suggestion and nobody cursed at me .

pb, do you plan to use those in a game?

Thank you labmonkey

and ya i was thinking about using them in a game, or at least ones like them. Were you wanting to use them?

Just wondering, some people post things that they never use.

No offense, but they are pretty bad right now and aren't really usable.

eh well i might use them and if i dont they were good practice.

and how do you know i didnt want them to look like that?

Asking for pixeling advice here is like asking for programming advice at Elysium xD
