It’s designed to be used in top-down view projects, with many tiles and tile formations incorporating a “front side” and a “top side”.

“Chthonic Masonry” is inspired by Lovecraftian concepts of eerie, strange forms of an unknown world.

Check out the playable tileset showcase above! Use arrow keys or WASD to move.

Being 2-bit, 4 color grayscale, it’s compatible with retro platforms like the Game Boy- check out the tileset showcase above, created in GB Studio and playable on actual hardware.

It’s also really easy to apply color to, if needed! There’s several examples of colorized tiles in the screenshot gallery.

Also be sure to check out the screenshot gallery for some examples of 3d models using “Chthonic Masonry” tiles as textures!

The tileset currently consists of more than 800 tiles and several “tile formations” like towers and curved walls, and will be updated with more tiles in the future.

There’s also a set of animated, Game Boy compatible sprites (3 colors + transparency) including a four-direction “protagonist” spritesheet.

There is also a basic 8×8 pixel font included. The font currently consists of the following characters/symbols:

ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZabcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz?!.,-+:;”()@&1234567890%^*()=#/\$£[]<>’`~

A LDtk sample project is also included!
