Right, here's an update on the tileset, plus I've added a "fog" effect (basically a dither tileset):



You may notice I've used the tiles differently from one side to the next: I wasn't sure if it were better for me to go for four bands of gradient, two bands, or using four bands in a less rigid way. I prefer the last version.

first dungeon in the game!

Is it a Sunken Submarine? I just know it is Sunken

Cool, so, you're gonna start with the Dungeon, or did you start already?

Did I say I like Dungeon-Based Games? (Like TLOZ) =D

Dude, I dig this project a lot. I like the overall style you're going for, really nice!

please teach me how to do tiles

i literally do not understand how this works

tileset updated with coral

demo of coral tile blending

next objective: making submarine more "rigid" ie giving it more straight lines

That second tile is very lovely.

I've changed the diver's palette and made a few other tweaks:




I'll update with the tileset.

Given the underwater scenario, I think he's moving too fast / with a too high amlitude.

I agree, he is moving quite fast.




Is this better?

It is better, but maybe he shouldn't be swinign his arms that far as every movement is working against water pressure.

That's a good point. When I was doing the animations, I was thinking that greater movements would indicate greater effort in these circumstances... I'll experiment, either way.

I have made a mock-up of a screencap:

I've been making an engine these past few months, too. It's not finished though.

oh, you showed me some concept art a while ago, didn't know you made a thread till now

good stuff though, keep it up

Yeah, it's been hidden by imgur now. :I

Made a little animation:

I'd like that effect to trigger when you go into the darkness.

Update:

Isopod done. It's camouflaged, so it can surprise the player. Now for the attack animation...

Update on the mock-up.
