OK, so, we start with a background, where our task is to build a town, from it’s beginnings (like one hut) to the future metropolis, with skyscrapers, flying Cossacks, etc.
Rules to follow:
You are limited to one addition per post. Addition counts as either:
1.1. altering the background (adding trees, rivers, etc.)
1.2. Adding new buildings or upgrading existing ones
1.3. Additional details, like cars on the streets, smoke coming out the chimney, etc.
Keep your additions consistent with the theme (so, no 10.8 V8 shopping carts when the majority of city is some wooden huts)
Do not ruin other people’s houses just for the destruction’s sake
No nyan cats, ufos, Godzillas. Keep it reasonable
Do not use automatic autoaliasing or other automatic palette expanding tools
Try to use isometric spriting
Save it as .png
Your pixelart skills do not count (mine are not that great), but at least put some effort into it.
Canvas can be expanded if there’s no space left
So, I’ll start with a bland plain background, and a wooden hut, you can, for example, upgrade it by adding a garden or something or add a new hut, or perhaps add some trees…
Well, you see that grass texture? Do you see how many shades has it got? It’s supposed to be some classic piece of pixelart. The next fellow has added an automatically antialiased path (you see how many shades there are on the edges of his path?) Even your hut is not save (apart from the support logs), I’m afraid.
Added a cheap 70’s moped, to start developing the village/town/city, if you are wondering why the image size increased from 16kb to 1.3 mb is because it is uncompressed for higher quality
Wait, it’s not like compressed PNG is of lower quality than its uncompressed counterpart. It’s lossless format after all.
BTW, the theme was supposed to be a medieval-tech village progressing through the technology, but I guess it was not clear. Moped can stay. Maybe we can say it’s a stranded time traveller, who lost his flux capacitor and can’t go back to his times, even when riding at 88 mph.
OK, so, seing you said something about the front door, I decided to add the mentioned appliance. Also, deleted these moped leftovers on the left, assuming you left them unintentionally.
