It's a tactical rpg, son.
To play the game, wait another 5 years or so.

My favourite thread. Keep it up!

pretty much sums it up

fil's the one to ask about blur vs no blur as an option.  im probably in the minority here when i say i don't like seeing large, sharp pixels (although blur is default on most programs that have pixel-art games, like snes emus etc)

I also demand an option to turn of the preposterous blurring!

I agree.

Large sharp pixels may not be beautiful to you, but large filtered pixels make me sick to the stomach.

I haven't seen anyone else mention it (maybe I missed it) but there seems to be an inconsistency in the shadowed cobbles.  In the light the rectangular tiles and cobbles are fairly close in value, but in shadow the rectangular tiles are way darker.  Do you have room in the palette to bump the tiles a touch closer together?  Right now it looks strange.  Great work though, that needs no further stating.

Why 5 years?

It's a massive indie game dev project.

I had a question about the shadows, they're currently quite jarring.
Are you going to have a layer overlay with a bunch of blue/purple tiles for shadows? becasue it'd be great to have some diagonally shaped shadows in those tiles :|

As the fame coder, my vote about the blur VS non blur thing goes to...
real size

But heh, Adarias would kill me if there were no fullscreen...In fullscreen, I prefer non blurred stuff but I can probbaly make both available (with slowdown. Yeepee, more work for me ^^)

[Feron]

i think it looks best at 2x.

if its fullscreen then i might not be able to acquire that many headache-painkillers.

After hours reading all the thread I have to congratulate you Adarias, great work...
About the fullscreen thing, if you can, make it looks pixelized even in full screen, that blur sucks...

agreed.  that's how id have it, if i couldnt get it with blur

lacky - due to a number of edits in the sunlight tiles, the shadows no longer align themselves quite right in a few places.  im going to look into that when i get a chance

zolthorg - i've toyed with the idea, and i seem to remember vaguely  Fil shooting it down as a lag-inducer (and therefor a severe limiter on the size of maps).  Fill, if this is not so, please chime in .  im afraid it would make far too many (7 to be exact) tiles for each type to hand-do proper shadows
