4 different tilesets for seasons

Ryan · 01-01-2013

What if we had a different tilesets for each season.

Summer could be the normal tileset

Autumn could have the autumn tileset

Winter could have the snow tileset

and Spring could have the normal tileset but maybe with more plants and flowers etc.

We kind of already do. Just not the spring.

In spring, it should be may flowers and growth

AND BUGS. it's been 2 months without them. I would recommend that you raise the frequency of all butterflies and bugs. Maybe add bees? And if you miss they sting you! That would mean -0.5 health! It think that would be a good idea.

HELL NO.
there was a fall tileset last year (hideous dead orange). I hate tileset changes, the color change BURNS my eyes and drives me insane for days. have the white/winter/snow tileset on for a month, whatever, i understand that, ill live. but we dont need tileset changes every. three. months.

The problem with doing this aesthetically is that simply changing tilesets is not going to achieve much of a different look. Ya, colors look different that's about it. In order to truly capture the feel of different seasons you have to do more than a tileset swap--you have to change levels entirely. This is an insane thing to try to accomplish in a world that is constantly changing, trying to manage 4 different variations of the overworld.
