The Community Tileset Project

Going through the motions here, finished the vertical bone and mirrored the spine. In retrospect the invisible tile was dumb and user-unfriendly, so I've done the next best thing and edited the collision mask for the spine tiles to be as smooth as possible to climb without any graphical changes.

I don't have anything to contribute to the current tilesets right now, but I would like to point out that the version of Community Tileset 4 in the OP is out of date.

They're both out of date. Fubaka must be busy.

Hi, I'm back.
I draw some broken bones. I changed my opinion about Sergio's invisible tile. It should be in the tileset.
Those ground tiles are superb.

Yea, progress.

I apologize for my absence.  I was going through some emotional turmoil over the past few months, and as such, felt like I should disappear for a while from this forum.  (Don't worry, it has nothing to do with you guys)

Considering the lessened presence of contributors (myself included), allow me to go back to the first post and amend the rules.  I will be loosening the queue requirements such that:

• Once you've done your turn, you must wait until either one (1) other person has made their additions, or at least two (2) days have passed since the last posted addition to add more to the same tileset.

Hopefully that helps.  I will see what I can add to the existing tilesets soon.

Sorry, no update.

Just wanted to say a few things. First is I'm hoping to make a small level using two of the tilesets we've created so far - I have some ideas I like but at the moment my ending is really miserable, so i want to tweak the plot a little - brainstorming ideas and the like.

The other thing is that I'm pretty sad to see this die as it was great while it lasted and had some good results. It seems to me that the skull tileset, while awesome, hasn't really inspired a lot of ideas, which is why people stopped contributing. And the plant set is of a quality that few of us felt confident to match.

If people are still interested in this, can I suggest we sign off the skull set as completed as far as the Community Project is concerned (but with the usual 'use/edit ok' tag) and drop the plants set, and start two new ones? It might breathe some life into what was a really good idea.

I started both of those. I killed the project.

Exactly. Go ahead and start a new one.

Is anybody interested in reviving this project soon? I might be down with contributing if nobody else will.

Maybe. I think we ought to start over though. The existing tilesets in progress haven't exactly been inspiring confidence for the past year or so.

Ok, in a bid to breathe life into this, here's 8 tiles of a new set. It's inspired by the ghost town in 'A Strange Dream'; I've posted rather an odd set of tiles but I think they demonstrate what I'm shooting for.

I, ah, borrowed (read shamelessly stole) the white noise pattern from Sergiocornaga's 'Vestiges' tileset for the house - hope that's ok! I also made a lovely tile to use as texture for the roof then forgot to save a copy of it before editing it for its purpose.

I feel that I'm actually getting good at drawing KS houses.

Hmm, perhaps this could be a tileset where you don't actually see the ground or the street level? Just jumping along rooftops like Batman or Dick van Dyke. Let's see what we can do here.

Hokay, I added to the tileset that Talps started. Basically I just finished up the house he made, then added a little chimney piece.

Remember when you add to the tileset that you must do only 8 tiles at a time! No more, no less!

(Also I removed the old unfinished projects. I hope nobody minds.)

That's fine. I'm surprised it was worth borrowing.

I'm actually sad to see them go.
