+Gemintronic Posted September 20, 2016 Share Posted September 20, 2016 Just wanted to contribute what I can. Here is my JASCII font. It's 8x8 and tries to follow the ASCII order. It's around 16 colors. I use an outline and hinting so that it looks good on both dark and light backgrounds. Graphic art assets and bitmap fonts are hard to find with clear licenses. I'm going to make it REAL clear here. While not perfect I am putting it up under creative commons 0 (public domain) http://creativecommons.org/publicdomain/zero/1.0/ Credit isn't required but I would consider it a nice gift in return jascii.bmp jasciibasics.bmp 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+Gemintronic Posted September 21, 2016 Author Share Posted September 21, 2016 The first 16 tiles are intentionally filled in that way. It's actually the color register. So, if you have a program that imports the palette using each subsequent detected color this will help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GroovyBee Posted September 21, 2016 Share Posted September 21, 2016 Looks good. Personally, I would have used a much more garish colour e.g. bright purple, to indicate which colour is transparent. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can you post the optimal color GroovyBee? I also chose Lilac as it's built into MSPAINT. I was considering magenta but it's used in EGA games.

GroovyBee Posted September 21, 2016 Share Posted September 21, 2016 I thought Lilac was already pukey enough. Can you post the optimal color GroovyBee? There isn't really an optimum colour. However, I've seen R=255, G=0, B=255 used in lots of sprite sets. I also chose Lilac as it's built into MSPAINT. I was considering magenta but it's used in EGA games. You can probably create your own colours. Having said that, I never really got on with MSPAINT. Older versions of Paint Shop Pro can be had for peanuts on ebay and they are far better better than MSPAINT. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Gemintronic Posted October 3, 2016 Author Share Posted October 3, 2016 Included a stripped down version up top with *just* upper, lower, numerals and basic symbols. This set is intentionally formatted for easy prototyping in Construct 2. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
