It would be fun to know what the oldest autotiles game is. DigDug from 1982 had them I think. diggerfrom 1980 might have used them.
There has to be some ancient ascii game that uses them. I'm sure they go back further than 1980.
Edit: now that I look at Digger & digdug I'm not sure either of those used autotiles. But I do think you'll find some games that used them in the very early 80s.
- Morromist 8mo agoOk, I'm pretty sure 3D Monster Maze (1981) used an autotile system -albiet a very very different sort, that made 3d-looking tiles appear in the correct place. Is that a proper autotiler? I don't know, but the principle is pretty much the same. Anyway I'll bet there are old games still that are out there with auto-tiles.
