Hi All,

Does anybody have some Lode Runner style artwork sitting around ?

We're currently running a little Lode Runner AI challenge, and i'd like something to represent the maps and characters.

For the challenge, the maps only need two tile types "bricks" and 'Ladder' tiles.

It would be nice to have running animations (left/Right) and a climbing animation for the character(s). In the original they're all the same. For the demo, i'm not bother. The challenge is about the "logic" not the visuals.

Tile Size, the example will most likely be running 800*600, question.. 16*16, 32*32 maybe ?

I could knock these up for you - I'll include the other backdrop pieces too (tightrope things for instance), just in case someones feeling brave.

At 800x600 the ideal tile size is 24x24, which would facilitate the original screen sizes, so I'll go for that.
