Hi & thanks kindly for your reply!
“Hey, this is pretty cool, the insect designs are great, and tapping into a different detail for each portrait is pretty cool.”
I surely had a lot of fun with gathering that insect party! When I was forced to minimize the number of unique tiles I hardly touched any part of the portraits, but rather reduced that cake. Previously it was a ring cake on a plate but it was also very “tile consuming.” Overall the reduced look better matched the rest of that “3D view” anyway.
The room being represented on the map to the right shows the value in the drawing.
I’m glad the map gets some love, too! Another consumer of precious tile ressource – but hey, what’s a RPG without a map?! Maps ♥! And while I’ve never seen a mini map visualizing the party’s covered path I felt the apparent erratic nature of our insect friends deserved a recognition.
“I was surprised when I looked at the jam page and there was yet another new pixel art, but it was good to have taken some time to look.”
Yeah, surprisingly it was decided to include my very belated entry… and that actually sweetened the rest of my week!
Cheers!
