Photoshop action to create an arcade stone background
Today I was playing a bit with Photoshop to create a stone background for a one-week game I am developing for the experiment.
I wanted something random, with a style that reminds old style arcades.
I found this tutorial and I modified it to fit to my needs.
Then I developed an action to optimize and speed up the entire process.
This is the result of the action, obviously always random.
It’s not a state-of-the-art action but is what I need, and you can custom some level styles to use it in a profitable way.
Download the action and give it a try
