Oh, you mean you create a map of 60x60 tiles. That's OK, maps can be any size.

As long as they're at least as big as the screen. So that would be 25 by 19 tiles. Otherwise you'd get an effect like this at the side of the screen.

Looks very nice, though of course half of the shadows in the doorway have to be removed since the sun only shines in one direction at a time.
Also, shadows from a single light source are not additive like that - you don't combine two shadows to get a darker shadow; that only works with multiple light sources (like, say, two streetlamps).

Thank you, As you can see in the last tileset, I'm already fixed that

While I'm creating the tileset I found the need of more elements, so I'm trying to create a Fountain, I would like to ask if we can use the particle engine with it

this is what I have now

I know it look like an icecream cone, but try to imagine the finished work on top, :wink:

Creating a fountain is a typical application for the particle engine. Sure you can create a fountain particle effect when you want to. Or you could ask me to create one for you as I seem to be the only one who really understands the particle engine ;)

Nice fountain. But it is a little too plan for a temple. How about adding decoration, such as lotus flower, symbols, or figures, etc...?

Crush, Can the actual stage of this graphic be used to create the water effect ?, I'm asking this because all the parts not pixelated yet are going to be covered by the particles, and I don't know if I do need to complete them or leave it as it is now (and save time)

And yes, Could you help me with the water efect ? I did read the wiki and it would take me too much time do it by my self

You should better cover it. You needn't do it well but you shouldn't leave it transparent as the particles aren't guaranteed to cover it completely.

Thanks from all us (in behalf of all the artists that somehow contribute to create this temple)

I just added some figures and try to improve a bit the general look (not too flat)
