Ancient Posted June 19, 2010 Author Share Posted June 19, 2010 This is something I was working on. I'm new here by the way so hello!I have a giant custom tileset and itemset if anyone is interested in anything else.This was an old xtremeworlds project. I am looking for a new engine to restart the whole game.All Pictures on this post property of Henrik Studios. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robin Posted June 19, 2010 Share Posted June 19, 2010 I actually really like that second picture. The parallax looks awesome.Also, use Origins if you're switching engines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ddunit Posted June 19, 2010 Share Posted June 19, 2010 Everything is awesome. Only thing that needs a bit of improvement would be the cliff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ancient Posted June 19, 2010 Author Share Posted June 19, 2010 Thanks everyone for the kind words. Yeah I wanted to explore a way to map with more depth. And Robin if I do start a new project I'll use your Origins, lots of nice features ect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kusy Posted June 19, 2010 Share Posted June 19, 2010 Would deffenetly look better if you'd make it less obvious that the paralxing bg is mirrored and pasted over several times. Cept that it's really nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marsh Posted June 19, 2010 Share Posted June 19, 2010 Looks very nice, adds alot of depth to the map. Though in the first screenshot the overtop trees on the bottom work really well. Though it is kind of wierd to see those on the top aswell.Good luck with the new engine hope it works out for ya. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
azkanan Posted June 19, 2010 Share Posted June 19, 2010 …Isn't that England and Ireland, mirrored, in the parallex? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anna Comnena Posted June 19, 2010 Share Posted June 19, 2010 No.Also, there is no parallax here because there is only one visual point of reference. Perhaps they are just static backgrounds and the maps are 1 screen size? I'm just arguing semantics as there isn't parallax even though if there is any scrolling maps you'd need to have it to look right.It looks good though, maybe some contrast between the grass and reeds on the marsh map.. oh and I agree with Kusy you should limit the amount of mirroring on the BGs.

Ancient Posted June 19, 2010 Author Share Posted June 19, 2010 They are just static backgrounds in the screenshots above, however I have them broken down into layers if there is someway to make them move at variable speeds.Yeah, the mirroring on the second screenshot is poor, I'll work on fixing that, thanks for the tip.

Keebler Elf Posted June 19, 2010 Share Posted June 19, 2010 Looks good, always nice to have more pixle artists around the forums. Sad that they all have their own games though :(. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
