Neat! Hint: offer it over at Lemon64 forums or, if you are German-speaking, at forum64.de - there are a few little projects going on (e.g. the project of Hakman,
Posting Drop Box Link for Beta Test Game : Dungeon Realm Revisited
- he also moved over to Lemon for the development). I am sure it will find someone appreciating it. Cheers!

Nice work!
If I was making a roguelike game, I would probably reserve a portion of the charset (say, 32 chars) for monsters that was local to the current area. You could then have many different sets of monsters, and much more than 256 different tiles altogether.

If I was drawing tilesets, and had a disorganized master tileset, I would probably pick the most usefull 256 tiles and post them here while I draw some more. ;)
If anyone needs the tiles feel free to use them, and if you want more, I could upload all I have. If anybody wants to draw some more or help out in any way that would be nice.
Drawing them I noticed that going for a classic rpg view as opposed to pure top down expands the tilset into many interesting ways.
Now seeing the pic from MagerValp, there's even more possibilities. That's some kind of half isometric view. I'm guessing a full isometric or even ultima style isometric is possible. There's also hexagonal permutations with top down and 'isohextric' style.
Thinking about it some more, the monsters could be even used for a side view game.
I think the classic half bird's eye view is a good balance between beauty and a small memory footprint.

This looks very nice. On a TFT at least.
Im a bit sceptical what to make of it from a CRT Monitor.
If you even want to care about that is another topic though.

I'm not sure how to simulate a CRT but here's some filtered in scanlines I made in the GIMP.
On a side note, It's supposed to be a game, so gameplay should come before graphics. A crap game with beautifull gfx is still crap, while a good game with bad gfx is still a good game.

Here's what it looks like in VICE with CRT emulation:
It's not perfect but it's a decent approximation. If anyone wants to run the prg on a real C64, there's an executable here:

Rearranged the tileset to make it easier to use, added some more tiles to make it all more useable here and there, added a wooden rail bridge.
A tool has been developed to color in 1 bit maps you could make in a map maker (I recommend Tiled), q and w change the tool to paint bg or fg or both colour attributes at once, the palette is editable and you can load any map you wish in it as long as it's 1bit.

As of today, (7.9.2014) this tileset is not free anymore, I'm changing the licence to something sellable, sorry guys.

A proper Hack C64 conversion would be marvellous, with these graphics a great start is done. :)

Noice, these remind me of a smaller set that I did some time ago, but yours are much more comprehensive and through and you have some really clever designs for the minimal size. Excellent work.
The updated graphics are even more impressive, especially like the portraits. And as for your mock up map. Superb!!!
