Dungeon tileset by Calciumtrice, usable under Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 license.
An original dungeon tileset suited for rogue-likes with 16x16 tiles and a wall height of 32 pixels.
The tileset includes walls, ceilings, floors, doors and gates, furniture and containers, characters, monsters and items.
Two varieties of the tileset are included: with or without complex ceilings. In the simple tileset, ceilings are omitted and a finish included at the top of wall tiles. I included the simplified version as I understand the standard version's ceiling edging might be too fiddly to use so you can take your pick!
Floors and ceilings should include edges for all possible tile placements.
If used, shadows should be applied as a multiply layer between characters/objects and floor tiles.
Character and monster sprites include both versions with a weapon and unarmed versions that may be useful for editing.
For best results, most items and characters should be offset a little vertically so they appear to be standing in the middle of a tile rather than the edge. This should give a better sense of scale and depth but naturally, feel free to experiment with what feels best for you.
I suggest the following tile types be given a small vertical offset of a few pixels (e.g. 4-6 pixels):
Chairs (furniture 16x32), containers, torches, levers, loot, misc. items, scrolls, books, potions, weapons, characters, monsters and fire.

Very stylish work. Thanks for sharing! I imagine it will get a lot of use.
Love it!
Lots of nice touches, like the winding staircase seen through the door!
Also, that Minataur is totally boss!
Cute.
I think with some edits your tileset can be used in combination with another 16x32 tileset from LambdaRouge: http://opengameart.org/content/lambdarouge-graphics
I really love your style, I just wish the characters had some animations
LD, I am considering making animated versions of the characters and monsters if there'd be interest.
My main concern is that they'll really have to be a bit bigger than 16x32 as I already packed as much as possible in those dimensions but would still want them to fit in the existing dungeon tiles. I figure it should be fine if the idles still fit in roughly that much space and things like swipes and limbs and weapons moving around could be outside the 16x32. The dev could just add an appropriate offset+centering and have them appear in the correct place on a tile.
I might go ahead and work on animated versions of what appears in the sheet, I will see!
Looks really cool! Great drawing style!
I love the style. Animations would really bring the tileset to life.
Calciumtrice, animations for this tileset would be greatly appreciated! Your work is amazing and it looks like just the thing I've been looking for a new project of mine.
Beautiful art, I hope I can put it to good use sometime soon.
I made the first of the animated versions of the characters . The warrior can be found over HERE.
Second animated character done. The ranger is HERE. They have a bow. Pew pew!
If anyone has a preference for which character or monster they'd like to see animated next, let me know.
Wooow great job :)
Will you develop any enemy character?!
britojorge, if you mean animate some of the monsters from the tileset then yep, I should hopefully get round to doing at least some, if not all, of them. Not sure how soon but at some point! :)
Top :)
The first animated monster, the slime, can now be found HERE.
I registered just to say that this is awesome.
Goblins ahoy: GOBLINS.
Gorboblins.
Yeah.
wooow another one :) fantastic
Fantastic work! I love your style, definitely using this and your other animated stuff.
Also, in the middle of making a game using your sprites, I managed to animate one of your little creatures, here ya go: http://opengameart.org/content/animated-rat
Thanks again for your amazing work :D
Your friends and mine, the rat and the bat, are now up HERE.
Squeak squeak.
This work is just gorgeous!!!! <3
Do you plan to make other dungeons parts like caves, or water and lava?
Tom, I'm working on animating the characters from this at the moment but I was considering doing a little expansion of it to include some caves, maybe.
Probably just the basics if so, some walls and floors like in the simplified version of the dungeon one here (so no complicated ceiling edges as that took a while and I'm not sure how many people would even prefer that version).
It would be quite easy to include water and lava and such if I put some simple pits in the set as well so I'll keep it in mind.
Your tileset is probably the most modern looking available (and probably the best looking), but it is a little to small for a real game.
Your animations are superb looking too <3
I agree, it's really just limited to a dungeon crawler in pretty much one environment if you only use what I've made so far without editing. My initial idea behind it was to put something together that someone could use to make a really basic roguelike or something similar.
If I keep working on this stuff then I should expand it with some more environments, I think. Caves would be a good next step so expect that if anything new is going to get made in terms of tileset stuff.
And thanks for the input!
Okay, thank's for reply, I’m looking for updates.
Hiss hiss, said the snake, hissing like a snake.
Animated snake is now done and is over HERE.
Very pretty, it would be nice to see this in a game.
Forgot to put this here last night; the cleric is animated and way pious. Find them HERE, friends.
You can likely look forward to THE SKELETON next.
Remember to be on your guard when SPOOKY, SCARY SKELETONS are causing trubs. Animated skeleton HERE.
Behold two mighty orcs!
Animated orcs (2 distinct characters) now available HERE.
Hello! Just thought I'd let you know I used your spectacular artwork in my new game "Pixel Dungeon"!
Feel free to check it out, but you don't have to if you don't feel the need :)
Anyway, here's the link: http://gamejolt.com/games/pixel-dungeon/79328
NEVER TRUST A WIZARD!
Sneak but do not be snuck up on as THE ROGUE.
The final monster, the rough, tough MINOTAUR has arrived in a stompy fashion.
Possibly look forward to a pack collecting the tileset and animated characters soon. I'm thinking I'll add a few extra bits and pieces like animated spell effects/explosions and maybe a few more little items and tiles.
If anyone has any helpful suggestions for (minor) additions for this final version, let me know.
Thanks :)
Just wonderful, ALL of it! Your creations are incredible. I really appreciate what you've posted for us to use here :) I know they've helped me a ton!
I love your art-style so much!
So awesome :D I love the mage and the minotaur, those animations are amazing.
Your work is wonderful. The tileset and the character animations are simply amazing. I would like to see more of it.
Thanks for sharing it with us!
This is the best dungeon tileset I have ever seen, amazing work!
I discovered your twitter account and saw this: https://twitter.com/calciumtrice/status/652118278412861440
Is there still a possibility that you are going to create this?
Hey cmoore,
I didn't get round to it at the time and I'm working on a couple of other projects at the moment. So probably won't put that together just now but I'll still keep it in mind for the future as you asking shows there's some interest. :)
Really well done, thanks for sharing.
Great work! Thanks for sharing dude!
Amazing, thanks for sharing.
great work! one of my favorite :)
These are fantastic - thanks for sharing!
Hello man,
Just letting you know that I made a roguelike for 7DRL 2018 competition with some of your graphics (rogue, big man and a few dungeon elements). I really like your style. I also made a few ratling characters following the same dimensions. I'm going to publish them on this website unless you want to include them in your tileset.
Here's a link to the game: https://pawel-s1.itch.io/artifex-gladii
Best regards,
Paweł
Hey Paweł,
Cool, always glad to see people using my work, particularly in stuff like game jams.
I probably won't be adding any updates to the tileset but you should definitely post a link here in the comments once you've put them up here, yeah!
So here it is, my tileset containing ratfolk characters with similar style: https://opengameart.org/content/ratfolk-tileset
Fantastic tilesets!
Used this sprites to build this little demo: https://github.com/Getsumi3/SimpleDungeonExplorer
Thank you!
