Dire Dungeon Environments
A downloadable asset pack
Three different dungeon environments that get you started with your tile-based dungeon games!
- Castle Dungeon
- Loam Cavern
- Snake Temple
Each set contains the following 32x32 tiles:
- 6 floor tiles + up & downstairs + pitfall
- 43 wall tiles for all orientations and plenty of variety
- 49 water tiles for all orientations and shapes (inkluding bridges)
- 6 interactables (doors, chests, crates, traps)
- 34 decorations to create a variety of different rooms
- 8 water decorations to spice up bigger areas with some visual interest.
The slightly tilted perspective I've chosen allows for interesting wall surfaces, but necessitated an overlap of many wall tiles (and other high objects). This in turn makes for slightly more complicated tiling rules, as most 32x32 wall tiles have a secondary "top" part that is walkable, but needs to be layered on top and makes most walls 40px high. The tileset pngs are clearly structured to identify these top parts and the demo maps show you how to use them. These tilesets were made with Tiled Map Editor in mind and contain a few things to kickstart that process:
- Ready-to-go Tiled Tilesets with meta-data to enable your auto-tiling logic
- Demo Maps that showcase how the tiles are used and supposed to be layered
I also offer a item set that pairs well with these environments, check them out here:

I hope you enjoy these assets and make your own game with it!

Not sure if it is me or your side. I however just got it and downloaded the .zip but it won't extract. States "Before you can extract files, you must copy files to this compressed (zipped) folder. Everything I have taken a look at has worked expect yours. Do you by chance know why
Thank you
Hello there, I am sorry for the inconvenience. I just checked and I could extract the zip file without issues (I am using WinRar). When I packed the files I renamed the file ending from ".rar" to ".zip", because the older version was a zip too. Maybe you can try renaming it back to ".rar" or try a different compression tool than you're currently using? If all else fails I can send you the individual files in an email, but I hope we figure it out :)
Good morning,
Yes, that would be the cause of it not extracting. I was looking at it and was like it looks a little different of a zip I wonder if he used winrar. Almost forgot all about that program last time I used it was like 2008 or 09 ish.
Thank you have a lovely day!
Hehe, I'm glad we got it sorted out. Maybe I'm stuck in the past with my winrar usage ;)
I posted an update on my plans for my asset packs:
https://itch.io/blog/755406/update-on-dire-dungeon-tilesets
And I want to repeat one important piece of info here:
I'm soon going to release a sizable update to this pack and will increase the price from 5$ to 10$.
So if you're on the fence about this pack, might as well buy it now :)
VERY nice assets!
If I had to ask, I would be happy if you could add objects.
Thank you AisAlia!
I'm actually in the process of making a set of 100 Equipment Items that go with these sets :)
These will contain realistic medieval weapons and armor + coins, scrolls, potions, etc.
Is there anything particular you'd like to see in such a set?
How wonderful!
Personally, I would be happy if there were "pitfalls, poor barricades, coffins, and magic circles" that coul be placed in the dungeon.
* I think poor barricades are perfect for goblin and orc nests.
Broken weapons and armor are also attractive.
It helps make the inside of the dungeon more frightening.
I'm looking forward to seeing it completed!
Good ideas, all! I will update the base set at some point with some more layerable decorations, I think that's pretty easy to do in an afternoon and adds quite some value for little work.
I'm looking forward to it!
Good
Not bad :)
This is amazing! Thank you for sharing!!
Well, thanks for the appreciation. Hope you find it useful :)
