What's in the pack
A whole school for top-down 16x16 pixel art games: 406 pieces, and every one of them again in an after-hours version. Classrooms, hallways with lockers, a gym, a cafeteria, a library, a nurse's office, a music room, a science lab, the principal's office and the rooftop. By day it is a slice-of-life school; swap one folder and it is the same school at midnight, lights flickering. For life sims, visual novels, school RPGs, mysteries and horror games.
Licence in one line: use it in your commercial games; do not resell the files. Credit "Art by Gridwright" with a link.
What you get
- 98 furniture pieces for 10 rooms: student desks and chairs facing 4 ways, a teacher's desk, cubbies, a fish tank; lockers in 3 colours (closed and open), a trophy case; bleachers, mats and a hoop; lunch tables and a serving counter that repeats; bookcases and computer desks; a nurse's cot and screen; a piano and a drum kit; lab benches, a fume hood, bubbling flasks and a skeleton model; the principal's desk; a water tank, a stairwell door and pigeons on the roof.
- The after-hours set (400 more files): the same pieces with the same names and sheet positions, graded dark, with the lights kept lit: tube lights, exit signs, emergency lights, moonlight and a glowing flask. Plus after-hours extras: an overturned desk, a toppled chair, chalk scrawls (a spiral, an eye, handprints), a shadow figure and a locker left ajar with eyes that blink. Spooky, no gore.
- Flickering tube lights (on, dim, off) to hang over any cell, and darkness overlays (four dithers and two flashlight holes) that join without a seam.
- 47-tile wall autotiles (188 tiles) in 4 finishes: classroom, hallway, painted block and wood panelling. They join the walls of Gridwright Modern Office & Home.
- 28 floors (7 kinds x 4 variants), 30 floor overlays (gym court lines with a centre circle, a reading rug of any size, papers, puddles, footprints, moonlight), a rooftop chain-link fence with all 16 joins and 37 wall decor pieces (chalkboards, doors that open, windows by day and night, a ringing bell, a scoreboard).
- 30 animation frames included in the count.
Made to drop in
- Strict 16x16 grid. 64 larger pieces are exact multiples (16x32, 32x16, 32x32) and stand on their bottom row.
- Every file is named after the object (locker_red_open.png, student_chair_up.png), and the neighbour bitmask is in every wall file name and in tiles.json.
- Tiled tilesets included for the day and after-hours sheets; the wall sets carry a wang set, so Tiled auto-tiles the walls for you.
- Single PNGs and sheets at 1x, 2x, 3x and 4x, no baked shadows, and a README that shows how the desks, lockers, bleachers, counter, court lines and fence fit together.
- No words, no brands, no school crests: boards carry scribbles, charts carry shapes.
The demo school, the after-hours school and the gym, cafeteria and rooftop in the screenshots were assembled by a small autotiler from these same tiles; the flashlight view uses the pack's own darkness overlay.
What it does not include
No characters (the shadow figure is a prop), no RPG Maker sheets and no engine project files beyond the Tiled tilesets. The art is drawn at 16x16; the 2x, 3x and 4x files are scaled copies. For a full horror hospital in the same style, see Gridwright Haunted Asylum.
