Hey. It’s been a while.

This isn’t the kind of comeback where things are better. They’re not. Money’s tight. My mind is tired. I’m making art with cracked fingers and cold coffee because that’s the only way I know how to stay alive.

But I’m back. And that means something.

A free asset, because I need to give before I can ask This tileset is small. Maybe too small. But it’s free, and it’s mine, and it’s the beginning of something bigger.

This first release contains only scenery tiles: walls, floors, decorative modular pieces built to evoke a weird, high-fantasy world through the lens of ASCII-inspired design.

The creatures and the ascii table will come in a separate free pack soon. I’m still tweaking them, but they’re on the way.

You’ll also find the exact palette used in this asset, to make recoloring or expansion easier. Use it, remix it, destroy it, rebuild it. If you need help composing scenes or visuals, feel free to DM me — I’m open to helping where I can.

Why I’m doing this I’m not gonna pretend things are fine. Being an indie artist right now feels like shouting into a hurricane — and sometimes I wonder if anyone hears it.

But I’m trying again. And if you’re reading this, maybe that means you are too.

What comes next This is part of a larger project called Pixel ASCII — a living, evolving world of assets, creatures, strange tiles, and modular madness.

Next up:

More creatures (weird ones)

Biome-specific packs (dungeons, deserts, eerie forests)

Expansion tiles

Maybe… a little game? Maybe.

All of it will grow in public. I want you to see the process, not just the result.

Let’s survive — artistically and literally If you like this work, consider sharing it. If you want to support me, donate what you can, or just say hi. If you’re also an artist struggling to keep the flame lit: I see you.

This isn’t marketing. It’s survival.

And it’s only the beginning.
