12 x 12 Graphics / Tiles
« on: July 10, 2011, 10:13:07 am »

When I went looking for 12 x 12 tilesets and graphics for my laptop screen, I discovered that, unfortunately, there are barely any around, and those that are are mostly scaled-down versions of 16 x 16 ones (and thus look terrible) or just bare ASCII (which isn't what I want).

So I decided to make a set of my own.  It's nowhere near complete, but I figured I might as well show you guys.  Any feedback is appreciated.

I think I edited my raws at some point, but it was only minor stuff like changing the fact that various types of stone look like prepared meals.  It works just fine without it.

Anyhow:




Here's the zip file with the graphics.txt file you need.

Here are a couple of screens of it running in-game.
Pictured: me not actually having a mature fortress that runs in this version.  If anybody's crazy enough to try it out, I'd love to see shots of a real fort.

That is actually one of the best composed tilesets I've ever seen.  It smacks of old pixeling and just clicks in an extraordinarily clean way.  Good job.

HEY, you should try my Dwarfletter tileset...it's pretty.

Thanks - glad you like them!  I like how the water turned out as well.

Have some tasty adorable animals.  I wish my screen was big enough to run this at 2x size -- I suck at making stuff readable at 1x.

Props on the water. Looking forward to how this progresses, as I'd like a nice 12 x 12 for my laptop.

Here is a screenshot from my longest running fortress.

This screenshot is featured with four other tilesets I use for resizing examples on my Tileset Resizer page.
Check it out if you want to see the same screenshot using other tilesets.
