Thanks, CocaCola! Glad you like it Here's one more link for you guys, hope you like it! This is about the effect when enemies are spawned due to the player triggering a trap. The game automatically finds an empty tile/space for the enemy, regardless of how horrible the room you've designed looks and is made for that.
Perhaps this post will get me points for originality at least.
Check out Dungeon Deities! It's amazing and will make you happy, successful and almost certainly more attractive! It might be true!

@ painkiller, yeah environment mapping for shade-c would be cool. You try to decrease the light range a bit and do more spotlights. You could also maybe try some soft light beams through particles or through transparent sprites. I've changed light's positions and color, now I get a different result:

@painkiller,
normal maps on that white panel walls look inverted, could look better if you flipped them.

@painkiller,
normal maps on that white panel walls look inverted, could look better if you flipped them. yeah, actually not inverted but that normal map gives a weird result. I've generated a new normal map from the diffuse texture and I think it looks better now:

It does seem a little bit better. Is CrazyBump worth it? I am currently using the nvidia normal map plugin. I created it using the demo, as I've just installed it. I've taken a look at the pricing and an indie license costs 99$. I'm not sure if it's worth it. The good thing is that it has different settings to get the result you want: I'll take a look over the internet to see if I can find a good plugin for Gimp. Currently I have one based on the nvidia plugin for photoshop but it doesn't allow to customize as good as crazybump. Edit: after taking a look I think there's just one plugin available for gimp, but I've seen some videos in which they later modify the result using different filters, maybe that's the way to go

I searched a bit and found ShaderMap ( http://shadermap.com/home/), it looks similar but half the price. Trying the demo now. -edit if you are using GIMP (I personally dont), than InsaneBUMP seems to be a good free alternative.

Well, if you work with mixed material and you only have "regular" textures, generating Normal Maps is the last resort, as it always produce just a sophisticated guess. I liked PixPlant: https://www.pixplant.com/ ... because it generates you from arbitrary images good repeated textures *and* creates normal maps and so on for you... so it's more for the repeated texture part. That is why I always liked that program.
