A simple 16x16 terrain tileset. This is designed to work in color AND in monochrome.

In making this, I condensed all known biomes (terrestrial, aquatic, air, space, manmade, transitional) into 26 tiles. This allows a given tile to define multiple different types of areas/terrain, and it allows you to come up with your own meanings for these tiles, rather than having to memorize a legend. Some of the tiles are obvious and some are not; this is by design.

A-Z, a-z = terrain

0-9, 0-9+SHIFT = map borders/frame

I add new art to this whenever I get more ideas. But I don't want the legend to be any longer than it is, so I leave the others for you to discover on your own.

A highly abstract, mandala-like segmented display which turns bodies of text into primitive starfields, complete with constellations, planets, and space debris. As it turns out, there are quite a lot of ways to write, draw, and encode information with this! Check out the sample text views and try preparing some text of your own in the User Input field.

The name, and the background of the sample art, are inspired by some art/lore from a friend. <3

I might make more designs like this for generating different kinds of art/textures. If I do, I'll probably scramble the display pieces among the alphabet. I didn't with this one, and for certain kinds of text input, that might show.

Donjon16: My take on a dungeon font. Create your layout with A-Z, move the caret to right after the room you want to edit, then type the letter for a trap, monster, and/or object and it will appear in that room. You can stack multiple smaller creatures or objects inside a room.

When one room's opening runs into another's wall, it makes a distinctive notch in the wall. I consider these to be closed or secret doors, but your design doesn't have to have them. :^)

Only the smaller monsters/items can fit into the corridors. However, you can fit up to three of the smaller monsters into a single corridor (5 if you use the 4-way corridor)!

This was actually designed to make minimap graphics for one of my games, and derives some inspiration from the maps in early Zelda games (The Legend of Zelda, The Adventure of Link, Link's Awakening, Link to the Past, etc.).

- TIPS -

Make the dungeon layout first, THEN start adding things to it.

Better to have a treasure vault guarded by monsters in the next room than to try to cram them all into the same room. The same holds true with many traps.

If you use the floor number markers, you can have up to 23 floors in all - 7 below-ground and 16 above-ground.
