New graphics needed

Open OnlineCop opened this issue 10 years ago • 19 comments

KQ has borrowed graphics from many other games, some of those are non-free.

It would be preferable that all graphics came from free sources, or were created specifically for this game (and given an open license so it could be distributed in major Linux communities and mods).

One suggestion was to use artwork from OpenGameArt.org. Some that look promising are: http://opengameart.org/content/liberated-pixel-cup-0 http://opengameart.org/content/lpc-tile-atlas

Please contribute to this issue with other suggestions.

NOTE: KQ currently uses 16x16-pixel tiles, and stretches them up to 32x32. If we want 32x32-pixel graphics, some changes to the engine need to be made.

Personally, I'm in favor of changing to 32x32-pixel graphics. Modern computers can handle the memory requirement, and graphics look a lot sharper. Unless we WANT a Minecraft-esque 16-bit look to the game ;-)
