The online salon “Maeda Design Studio” led by former Nintendo designer Takashi Maeda, and its material download website “DOTOWN (ドッタウン)” have recently provided about 700 kinds of rough bitmap (rough bitmap) materials for free and can be used commercially.
The former Nintendo designer leads the material download website “DOTOWN” to provide about 700 commercially available rough bitmap materials for free.
According to the description of the website “DOTOWN”, the rough bitmap material is a kind of “reverse evolution (ultimate abstraction)” and can be used in various places such as watch patterns, banners, mouse cursors, etc.
Click on the “DOTOWN” homepage, and on the right side you can see rough bitmap materials of different categories such as seasons, sports, people, food, creatures, plants, vehicles, streets, etc.
After clicking the icon of the material you want to download, click the “DOWNLOAD” icon to directly download the PNG file. The size of each file is different.
About 700 kinds of rough bitmap materials provided by the website can be used commercially, but they must still comply with regulations such as not being used to violate public order and morals, or damaging the image of the materials. Of course, the materials cannot be directly used as products for secondary sale.
In the field of games, bitmaps are an interesting way of expression and are very familiar to people. The material download website “DOTOWN” wants to make “thick bitmaps” a lifestyle or art style through “ultimate abstraction” through free personal use or commercial authorization. Since the materials can be used commercially, the scope of use has also increased a lot. I believe it is very suitable to come here to find materials or inspiration when designing games, websites, and gadgets.
