Short and slim basic explanations how infinite loopable textures or basic tiles work.
Don't went in depth to explain how to do textures.

But maybe your version of GG isn't actual.
I also don't know if that's supported in the free test version, that could also be the case.
But anyways, this is extremely helpful, thank you for sharing! I always had trouble with getting tiles to line up perfectly, so I'll definitely keep all this in mind for the future
It's important that the edges are 2:1 pixels and that you have an odd number of pixels in the middle of the tile, to guarantee sharp edges, if you are drawing a box or a cube.
The templates I provided in the tut are the ones I'd use.
However there were also games on the SNES which used 16x16 pieces (4-tile square metas) because that's much faster to map in an editor.
In fact you could use every size or shape you want, but if the tile is to small you get limited with the amount of pixels. If the tile gets to big it might take to long to craft a single one.

Thanks.
(paid version as well)
Woah it's so much better, especially how the different tool windows are handled/snapped now.
By the way, there is a program called pyxel, aimed for pixel art that lets you create tiles in seconds! Be sure to check it out
