I've moved my game dev stuff to a separate account. I realise a lot of people may have followed me for pixel art so I want to maintain that here.

My game dev account is now at bsky.app/profile/badc...

Apologies for any inconvenience and thanks for your attention.

I think this looks good, but you could also do it it in line-by-line by loading in the tilemap with blank tiles then load the (unique) tile data line by line.
