Hey! I totally forgot to submit to the last jam, though I wasn't very good with that theme.
This one's a little easier for me as I can make a tile-set which is something I'm alright at, and apocalypse/sci-fi is a lot more broad and the palette limitation is sweet.
So I'm going for a kind of Advance Wars style game asset; with the map tiles, units, with maybe also UI and a font. I only started today, but I'll try and post here each day til the end.
Day 2. I added some more building types and colour options, working on open water, little rocket with silo animations and some craters. I also tweaked the water so it had a little angled perspective, less flat looking.
Day 3. Did some pipes (I think of apocalyptic as also kinda industrial), and some trees.
I think you can also twist around the pipes a bit like dirty/dead water produced by people
Day 4: I was a bit too busy to do much.
Day 5: I've been playing with mountains/hills. Not overly happy with them but I'm going to try some different colors and transitions into the ground. I don't want anything too complicated to tile, but also not so simplistic as a single tile for a mountain (like Advance Wars has). And ye, I changed the "water" coming out of the pipes, green with brown questionable things floating in it is a lot more fitting! Tomorrow I think I'll work on units, as I'm quite happy with the selection of terrain now.
