Synergy details.

Someone told me I should post more details, and some screenshots, but since I don't have good graphics, I will give you more details.
You wake up in castle, with three other people.
The castle is deserted, save for you and the three other people.
I can't tell how you got there, it would spoil some things.
anything else you think I should inform you about?

What I meant (if it was me) was that you should produce your game a bit then show us what you've got then we can help.

ok! can't do graphics though, so... yeah....

[Newbie Newtype]

It's easy enough to find pixel tutorials on the internet. Just try to keep the graphics simple and you'll do fine.

Could I find out where some FF tile sets are?

You know that funny box with the words "Google" that you've been wondering about? Try typing in "FF Tilesets" and clicking Go. You might be pleasantly surprised.

Another option is to just make placeholder graphics without focusing on quality if you're sure graphics aren't your forte. Then, if you can present a game (or demo) that is lacking in graphics but is otherwise awesome, you could probably drum up some interest in someone doing graphics for you.

I highly recommend using Fenrir Lunaris' Vikings of Midgard graphics, which he provides freely for newer users to use. His graphics are excellent, and have proven to serve different purposes well.

mine didn't come with that...

mine didn't come with that... :(

It is not included in the minimalist zip file.
But you can still download it from the game list.

[ajguy93]

could you post it here, or what keywords do I use?

Google it.

It is the first one in the list :)

You will probably also want to know how to export graphics out of Vikings of Midgard so you can import them into your game.

For sprites, open Vikings, go into the sprite editor, and press CTRL+F to switch to full-spriteset mode. Then press E to export a spriteset.

To import the spriteset, go into the sprite editor, add a new sprite set by pushing down-arrow at the bottom of the list. Then switch to full-set mode with CTRL+F and then press I to import

For tilesets you will find menu items for importing and exporting them.
