Hope you will enjoy this one. It's just a small tileset with new graphics for the dwarves, mushrooms and diamonds.

Not bad for a simple alteration, I like it.

Thank you. I'm having plans on doing more changes later on, but it's a big maybe since a sprite is often used for more then 1 thing, and I'm a bit of a neat freak =)

Okay, added some more sprites and gave the dorfs an overhaul, things are turning out nicely. But making the walls are very difficult. It's hard to see where the walls are and where they begin and end. Any tips on doing sprites for the constructed walls?

It helps you test all tiles and colors.

Man some of those new tiles are reminding me of some oldies I used to play for Sega Genesis

Just a little. It would be great if you keep it as a simple ASCII tileset, just sometimes I like to play with really simple sprites and such and don't like having to change a bunch of tiles in the raws just to use a set.
