Greybox Level Kit: Tiled Ready Tiles, 9 Characters and 32 Icons

Block out a level in Tiled in minutes, then swap in your real art later. Flat, colour coded greybox art with a ready to open sample level, 9 animated characters and 32 item icons.

Tiles, 9 characters, 32 icons, 12 effects, 20 UI, 4 backgrounds. Every sheet comes with atlas JSON, and every piece comes as its own transparent PNG too.

THE COLOUR CODE (so a level reads at a glance)

Grey is solid. Blue is water. Red is hazard or enemy. Green is goal, safe or player. Yellow is interactive or a pickup.

WHAT YOU GET

• Tiled ready: tiles-16.tsx and tiles-32.tsx (every tile has a type and a solid flag, so collisions are easy to set up), plus a 60 by 14 sample level as level-16.tmx and level-32.tmx and a rendered level-preview.png. The level is a real side view course with a lava pit, a water pool, a ladder, slopes, conveyors, ice, a breakable block gate, a key door and a goal door. It uses only tiles from this kit and has spawn markers for the player, enemies and pickups.
• 32 tiles at 16x16 and 32x32 (64 PNGs): ground top and fill, wall, platform, one way platform, ladder, slopes left and right, spikes up and down, water, lava, ice, conveyors left and right, bounce pad, door, locked door, key door, switch on and off, breakable block, checkpoint, goal flag, ledge corners and edges, crate and question block. Sheets and atlas JSON for both sizes.
• 9 characters at 32x32 and 64x64: player, walker, flyer, shooter, charger, jumper, boss, NPC and pet. Each has an idle animation (4 frames) and a walk animation (6 frames). 180 single frames, 36 horizontal strips, plus one atlas sheet and JSON per size.
• 32 icons at 32x32 and 64x64 (64 PNGs): coin, gem, heart, key, potion, sword, shield, bow, bomb, chest, star, scroll, orb, map, torch, ring, crown, book, apple, meat, mushroom, boots, helmet, axe, pickaxe, hammer, wand, lantern, feather, skull, clock and lock.
• 12 projectile and effect strips (71 frames) at 32x32 and 64x64: bullet, arrow, fireball, magic bolt, spark, hit puff, dust, heal pulse, explosion, slash, smoke and glint. 142 single frames, 24 strips, sheets and JSON.
• 20 UI placeholders at 1x and 2x (40 PNGs): panel, dark panel, four button states, bar frame, three bar fills, two cursors, four arrows, checkbox on and off, tooltip and inventory slot. Packed sheets, JSON and nine slice border sizes.
• 4 parallax background sets (Meadow, Cavern, Dusk, Dunes), 3 layers each at 480x270 (12 PNGs). The layers tile left to right. Plus 4 preview composites.
• Quick-Start.pdf (one page): colour code, sizes, folder map and import tips for Godot, Unity, GameMaker and Tiled. Also README.txt, LICENSE.txt and palette.png.

DEV READY

• 596 files in tidy folders: individual transparent PNGs, one sheet per category and an atlas JSON for every sheet (name, x, y, w, h).
• Crisp hard edges with no anti aliasing. Every opaque pixel in the tiles, characters, icons, effects and UI comes from one 19 colour palette, so it is easy to recolour or replace.
• Characters face right. Flip them in your engine for the other direction.
• Plain PNG, JSON and Tiled files, so they work with any engine or framework that loads images.

GOOD FOR

Platformer level blockouts, level design tests, prototypes, teaching and workshops, and early builds where you want something readable before the final art is ready.
