I'm currently working on a tileset, and I want to really give it my best. I've come up with a lot of ideas for it, and I would like some more help.

It's a jungle/temple theme, and it already has:

Temple tiles:

normal ground
background
torch
vines
spiked vines
spikes
collapsable tiles
destruct tiles
h-poles
v-poles
temple / forest conversion tiles(tiles that allow you to connect forest and temple)
idols

Hot Temple tiles:

Normal ground
background
lava
collapsable tiles
destruct tiles
idols
ground coming out of the lava

Forest tiles:
normal ground
trees
little eyes:D
spikes
spiked branches
vines
sucker tubes

I'm going to make water and lava for the jungle, and possibly water for the temple.

And yes, I do have a backround, and it is pretty niftular, especially because it can be used in warp horizon! Yippie!!!

I like that you're writing down everyhting you're going to make before you make it, good job!

Anywyas, the only major thign I can think of to add is some traps for the temple. Spikes coming out of the floor liek in the Psych tileset fom epic would be nice...

I hate the spikes in Psych. It's so easy to get stuck in them. Usually, I put warps below them whenever I use Psych, which is not very often.

hmmm... Actually, I forgot to say I put in spear like thingies that pop out of the temple and jungle floor. The spears popping out and the floor are two different tiles, so it's pretty hard to get stuck on them.

I would especially appreciate ideas for things in the jungle area, I'm just getting so many inspirations for the temple and so little for the jungle.:(

Edit: To piccolo: I don't think my tileset will be finished that early, especially since I'm starting school tomarrow, and I want to get as much stuff in it as I can.

Putting one way events on the tiles under the spears will make it impossible to get stuck!!:D
And if you are interested in my new idea,PM me or catch me on MSN or ICQ.:D

Just create all sorts of exotic bushes for jungle.

Make sure to have trees, and possibly animals.

I already have trees, and I don't really like using things like animals in the set.

Also, I'm going to put in Carniverous plants so don't go suggesting that.
