Its a good start, I think what Kage means, is to have reflective walls as well.

On a more serious note, what is the official guideline for reflective surfaces? I can't find it anywhere

There isn't one as we've never discussed it. Reflecting just the map tiles and not beings would look odd.

Dynamic reflection (and why it is impossible to do it properly) is discussed here: http://forums.themanaworld.org/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=6838

  • former TMW Pixel artist
  • NOT a game master

Please do not send me any inquiries regarding player accounts on TMW.


You might have heard a certain rumor about me. This rumor is completely false. You might also have heard the other rumor about me. This rumor is 100% accurate.

For ice "reflections" (could also work for water) I'd use an underlay with alpha channel transparency on the actual tiles. One parallax underlay and one animated sparkle should do the job quite nicely.

No one has seriously thought of implementing this yet.
