I am contributing to many different aspects of the project. Pixel artist, mapper, programmer, game concepts and i even tried to compose music, although with minor success. My credo is "when you want something to be done properly, do it yourself".

I am always concerned about the opinions of other developers and the fan base. So i am usually showing a lot of unfinished work on the forum.

Projects I took part in

Pixel Art

These pieces of art are mostly made by me:

  • Woodland tileset
  • Woodland Village indoor and outdoor tilesets
  • Pink monster
  • Ambient GFX
  • Female version of cotton shirt
  • Some tuneups at female player set
  • The following Headgear sprites: Miners helm, Fancy hat, Headbands, Santa hat
  • Light platemail armor

I also made some minor improvements at the following pieces:

  • Desert tileset
  • Dropshadow of the bats
