First Parallax try

[MaidenM 2]

So I'm trying to do parallax mapping because the tilesets scare me. I would like to know what others think. These are meant to be the very first maps in my game, a short ice dungeon to begin with. I wanted to make it look very empty while still giving it a decent amount of clutter. I'm using the resources that came with RPGM, if anyone has any suggestions of what else I can use I would appreaciate it.

 

 

 

Entrance

 

 

 

 

First floor, a simple two boulder "puzzle" is going to block the way.

 

 

 

 

Second floor.

 

 

 

 

Slidy puzzle.

 

 

 

As it is the very start I wanted it to be simple, like kindergarten simple. A bit of jumping, a bit of pushing, a bit of sliding.

Oh, that's amazing! How did you do that rounded corners?

 

I loved it. :3

Thank you x)

 

As I was drawing freehand the rounded corners where easy. I'm just worried it might look sloppy atm...

You draw very well, I'm so jellous.   

 

Haha. Keep the good work. ^^

Those maps look beast! As far as other resources, whenever I attempt (and usually fail at =p) parallax mapping I try to use charset and icons as some light clutter, with the colors adjusted to kind of match the setting.

 

These are pretty awesome looking though!

That’s pretty good for your first try.  There are people that have experience that can’t make them that good.
