I've thought for a while now that the Z2 dungeon lava pits were actually fire pits so I put together the animated fire tiles from NES Batman. This was just to see what it looks like and will probably not end up in the game. NES Batman really has some amazing art!

I'm not certain this is what ZALiA's palette will end up as but I think it's fairly solid so far.
Note that I've revamped ZALiA's color/palette system but it will actually use any color you give it. I just like having a specific, limited set to choose from.
Some work toward an extended NES palette.
HoverBat, why don't you just use the asdfjillions of colors available to anyone?
idk. its too many color. i enjoy what can come from limited resources. i feel this is still way too many colors. maybe just 24 more on top of the NES. and maybe adjusting some of the NES colors. i'd...
~3500 or so sprites. There was literally a separate image file created by gamemaker for each one. Github will only show the first 1000 so I came up with a script that creates one sprite with all them condensed and saves the data on all their positions, offsets, and dimensions. This all means that all player sprites, including...

It's been a lot of work to get to this point. I'm still new to this whole process so I imagine there's a lot more that needs to be done that I'm unaware of.

Biome Rando: The overworld biomes are shuffled. This can be toggled anytime in the options menu. Swamps do not slow you down due to the potential of there being a lot more swamp tiles.
Scene Rando: Any scenes with matching elements are shuffled. This can be toggled anytime in the options menu.

I'm developing a system for alternate dungeon tile graphics, allowing dungeons to easily use tilesets from other dungeons or custom tilesets. This system will include an option in the rando setup that will assign each dungeon a different tileset. It enables creators to add significantly more detail compared to the current lev...
