module sprite source?

Post by suaig »

Are the sprites for modules from some public domain source? I was playing Akuji the Demon and it uses the same sprite except with a little design on it. Reverse searching for either version only returns results for factorio.

Nice find. :D

It looks like Akuji the Demon is the original source. Someone ripped the sprites from that game and posted them on spriters-resource.com, and the Factorio artists got it from that site.

Akuji the Demon is also the source of the alien artifact!

The module graphics definitely fit fFactorio currently, but it would be cool for new module graphics, like the tech graphics (which look much better and more detailed).

There is the question of how to identify the modules easily and quickly when you're using all of them at once.
