What it looks like. A texture that you can put a screenshot (with alpha) of your hero on and use it as the menu back.
It would be nice if you e-mailed us at taurusxyz@yopmail.com before use.

Ok, now this one is GIMP Plasma plus a GIMP Lava layer.
Yep... With some tricks. It took some work, trust me.
Does it matter if it did or did not take more than a few minutes? Personally, I don't think so... if the result is a high quality art asset I see no reason why that should hold any bearing.
On the note of quality, I would highly recommend a higher resolution version of this, say 1024x768. 640x400 is very low resolution and things like this don't scale up very well. Just a thought... ;)
Hello.
Some years after the creation of this nice image, it is now used for a mini-demo in Squarity, the game engine I'm developing.
You can play it here: http://squarity.fr#fetchez_example_emerald (it may be a bit long to load, you will have to wait for some minutes).
The "CC-BY-3.0" mention and the link to the original image are put at the beginning of the game source code, which is directly visible on the left part of the interface.
In the mini-demo, you play as a green emerald, searching for your friend the yellow chrysoberyl. Go to the right to find it the first time. Then try to find it again by yourself.
Squarity is a 2D-board-game engine. You draw a tileset, you write some python code, and you get a nice game that you can play and share in any web browser.
I sent an e-mail to the specified address (taurusxyz). I guess I should have mailed BEFORE using the image, sorry about that. It's just I'm not sure I will get an answer, since the image was posted more than 10 years ago.
There is no need to wait for a response to the email. That is not a requirement of using the asset. Just an optional request by the author.
Thank you for the information.
By the way, did you test the minigame?
Indeed I did. All 3 of the examples.
Cool! Thank you!
There are links to other games on my mastodon account, if you want to try more of them. (I sometimes participate to Ludum Dares).
When you see a mastodon post with a game screenshot, there is always a link above, which leads you directly to the game.
Have fun!
