Tile Cold Lands Terrain

A set of lovingly hand-painted 2D terrain tiles of cold and snow-covered land suitable for a videogame overworld, a strategy game, boardgame-like visuals, or your next virtual tabletop RPG campaign!

• 72 tiles total (13 tile types x 4 variations + 20 additional location tiles) 
• 40 non-tile decor sprites included (trees, mountains, icebergs, giant frozen skeleton, etc.)
• tiles are painted at 256x384 pixels so that trees, hills, and mountains can overlap the tiles behind 
• can be used in a square grid or staggered faux-hex style grid 

Terrain types included: 

• snow-covered mountains (+ 4 variants with caves) 
• snowfields
• forest (pine, snow transition, snow-covered + clearing for each type)
• rocky hills (bare, snow transition, snow-covered + cave for each type)
• cold plains (bare, snow transition, snow-covered + pond for each type)
• ocean with icebergs
• cold dirt
• also some ruins, a giant skeleton, an ice palace, and logging camps

All assets are included as individual transparent-background PNG files. The base tile grid size is 256x256 pixels and the tiles include space for vertical overlap. Decor sprites are of arbitrary size, but generally smaller than the tiles. 

Usage

These square-format terrain tiles are intended to be drawn so that tiles in rows lower on the screen are drawn overtop of tiles in rows higher on the screen. This will ensure that trees, hills, and mountains will appear to stand out. You can make this a square grid or a staggered square grid to get a hex-grid like effect.
