This tileset was developed specifically for use with GBStudio, where graphics are stored in the system as 8x8 tiles. By using these tiles, one can incorporate a greater variety of tiles into a map without running into the 192-tile limit which Game Boy hardware has.
Well, before making this I already found ways to break that limit (and to use larger tiles), and the resulting games compile fine and even work on real hardware. I made this anyway for those who wish to never exceed 192 tiles, thus keeping their games small in filesize and reducing the likelihood of compiling problems.

A simple 16x16 terrain tileset. This is designed to work in color AND in monochrome.
In making this, I condensed all known biomes (terrestrial, aquatic, air, space, manmade, transitional) into 26 tiles. This allows a given tile to define multiple different types of areas/terrain, and it allows you to come up with your own meanings for these tiles, rather than having to memorize a legend. Some of the tiles are obvious and some are not; this is by design.
A-Z, a-z = terrain
0-9, 0-9+SHIFT = map borders/frame

I add new art to this whenever I get more ideas. But I don't want the legend to be any longer than it is, so I leave the others for you to discover on your own.
Version 1.1: Improved and shrank the tokens so that they can fit into the corner of an unflipped tile.

This is a set of tiles that can be used to create mockups and pieces for the Piecepack board gaming system. Dice not included!

I went out with Gramdma for a swim at "Outdoor Adventures Lakeshore"??, and went swimming in the lake, then got dressed, ate, (put on bathing suits, got dressed, drove to the indoor pool,) put on bathing suits, rinsed, went in the pool, saw these white letters made out of tiles, thought of an idea "What if I can turn this into a font...", got out of pool, got dressed, went home, played LOA, played BTU Minecraft, slept, rode bus to school then here, got on chromebook, finished labs, worked on font, then here we are...
The letters that are authentic are D, G, I, N, O, V, 3, 4, 5, and ', others: I made.
Made from only squares and triangles...
