Tilesets and Graphics / Retro Tilesets: Pawn64
« on: December 16, 2023, 06:42:05 pm »
So, I made a tileset for myself and realized I should share it here.
Growing up with the Commodore 64, I wanted something that had that feeling but took advantage of multiple values of colors and a little half-pixel shading to make things more immediately readable.
So the intention is heavily-inspired by but not necessarily authentic.
I also drew inspiration from Cheepicus, which was my favorite before making my own.
I play DF 0.47.05, so I do not know if it works well with later version.
Making it was fun, so I plan on doing a few other old computers over the next year.
The project is here: https://github.com/MyNameIsMortimer/retroDFtilesets

There's also Commodore-64 inspired color scheme: https://github.com/MyNameIsMortimer/retroDFtilesets/blob/main/init/colors_Pawn64.txt
