Tile Volcanic Wastes

This is a set of lovingly hand-painted square tiles of volcanoes, lava fields, fumaroles, ash plains, and burned forests. Use these to enliven your videogame overworld, strategy games, boardgame visuals, or your next RPG campaign map!

• 9 tile types x 4 variations = 36 tiles total
• painted at 256x384 pixels so that mountains can overlap the tiles behind
• includes 42 decor overlay sprites (rocks, trees, lava cones, fumaroles)

Terrain types included:

• volcanoes, active
• volcanoes, dormant
• lava seas
• lava fields
• lava field, active
• ash plains
• fumarole fields
• ash plains, burned trees
• dirt plains, burned trees

All assets are included as individual transparent-background png files. The base tile grid is 256x256px plus vertical overlap of up to 128px. 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 higher on the screen. This will ensure that trees, hills, and mountains will appear to stand over tiles "behind" them. You can use a square grid or, if you like, a staggered square grid to get a hex-grid like effect.

If you want larger tiles, I recommend using one of those machine learning image upscaling algorithms that's keyed to painted pictures, the results can be quite nice.
