How to achieve this

Hello I want to achieve the kind of graphics like in the images below. Look at how the top and sides are well drawn. Are they a big image or separate sprites put together? Any tutorial on this?


Especially these two:

 

In most of the above cases its a matter of using tiles/textures combined with custom tweakable geometry. I know rayman they have a pretty fancy custom editor which lets you draw out whole shapes and sections and it just procedurally generates what textures to fill it with to produce an `outline`. You could do this with just a tilemap but it depends how advanced you want to get.

 

Thank you for the reply! I now start to see the repeating sprites:


But i wonder how is the yellow lines part done, to fill the terrain? Maybe like Rayman, if i understand well it is filled with.. more sprites?

Edit: Also how is the terrain collision done? Edge or Collision Collider on an empty object that represents the entire terrain in one level?

Thanks!

 

Custom geometry. It's not a square tilemap, there are irregular shapes to fill the interior and texture them, then they're `decorated` around the edges with sprites at various angles. Collisions can be just colliders on the edge sprites.

 

Hope this helps:

 

Thanks! Thats one amazing way of making terrains and so on in 2d style, i like it. But for small games i mean teams we'll have to do it manually like we have to add sprites in the middle to fill the whole terrain etc.
