Demoness Boss Battler

Hello! I have something a little bit different today. I got the idea from a couple different patron suggestions.

Today's post is designed to go with the demoness character sprite from late last year.

I've been playing some old-school Final Fantasy this week, and it got me in ...

Colosseum Tiles Add-on

Hello! Today's release is a big one based on a patron request!

This was a request that I knew that I wanted to do, because I've made some pieces before that went halfway towards an area like this but without fully committing. Seems like a classic archetypal location for an RPG, and an important missing piece to complete the Time Fantasy collection.

This add-on is designed to rep...

Elements: Character Expansion 1 - Published

Hello! You knew this was coming!

I'm really excited to share this with you! We've been slowly building up this expansion pack for nearly half a year, so it feels great to finally have this one completed!

Most patrons have seen the early-release beta that I shared at the turn of the year. Now the final set has been put together and it's published on itch today!

New Style Moo Cow

Hello! Today's release is something fun!

So... if you'll allow me, there's some backstory and extra information about this one. It's not just another regular asset drop.

See, this is actually an idea that I've had in the back of my mind for a while now. After seeing one of the patron requests that aligned with this idea, and with the Elements character expansion releasing later t...

End of Month: January 2024

Well, it's the end of the first month of the new year. Let's recap our productivity:

Patreon Releases:

Spirit Wisps

Hello! Today I have another one based on a popular patron suggestion.

Here are some animations designed to use as an environmental effect.

There's one basic animation, but the sheet also includes a second one that I made by arranging two together. There's also three different color variants-- so when you put them all together, there are plenty of options.

You can see how I used them...

The Satyr

Hello! Today's release is based on a patron request.

I was thinking about making a cute little faun type of character, but I ended up going in this direction instead, because I figure that we can never have too many sprites for intimidating monster enemies and/or bosses. So this guy is reminiscent of the big mean satyr monsters that you see in D&D or Magic.

There's two versions, as has become typical for the...

Elements Cultists

Hello! I hope you had a nice weekend.

When I release the original Elements Character Core set, it included a set of pre-made NPC sprites. As I'm making the final touches to the expansion, I decided that I wanted to include some premade bonus sprites for this collection as well.

The Mirror Entity

Hello! Today's release is another one based on a patron request!

When I saw this suggestion, I thought it was a fun idea to make a special animation. And I know that monsters/bosses are always useful, so I went ahead with this one for today's release.

The animation is designed to work with the typical TF-style character-- the idea is that it transforms into a brightly-lit silhouette, whic...

The Phoenix Egg

Hello! Today's request is based on a patron request that I thought was really cool.

When I saw this request, I thought that it would be a fun to revisit one of my classic sprites and give it a second life! This animation could be used to introduce the phoenix as a cool boss fight-- maybe you have other ideas for how to use it?

Note: The main phoenix sprite was originally ...

Kitsune Update: Walking Animation

Hello! Today's release is based on a patron request.

I've previously made this sprite of the Legendary Kitsune. Today's release is an expansion to that character-- there's now a full four-directional walking sprite to go along with that original sitting animation.

Not much else to say... I h...

Outhouse

Hello... do you smell that?

Today's release is based on a patron request.

To make this the most useful, I've separated this into two files. The door is animated, and the outhouse itself is a simple tile add-on.

Like all of my tile add-ons, it's arranged in a simple grid so you can easily add it into any existing tileset.

Swamp Grass

Hello! Happy New Year! Let's get started!

Today's post expands on the Swamp Terrain Tiles that I shared last month. This is a new texture and autotile for some tall grass.

Okay, I know its not the most exciting first release of the new year, but... I did say that I was planning...

End of Year: 2023

It's that time again. Hard to believe this is the seventh time that I'm making a post like this!

That said, let's just jump right into it:

This post will recap the year's productivity and highlight some stand-out releases from throughout 2023. I always put a lot of effort into these posts: I think they're a lot of fun, but also because I find it really useful organizationally and mentally.

That said, if you're not here for the recap and you just want to grab that sweet l...

End of Month: December 2023

Ahh, the final month of the year. Today we're going to do December's productivity recap thread, and this weekend I'll be back with the one for the whole of 2023.

December Patron Releases:

Elements Char Expansion! Patron Beta

Hello! It's finally here!

I've been crunching a lot of hours in the past week or so, to make sure that I got all of this finished in time to share it with you today! I'm really excited to release this collection as a beta for patrons!

This set includes a bunch of stuff that I've been previewing h...

New Swamp Terrain Tiles

Hello! Today's post is based on an old patron request.

Over the years, I've released a lot of pieces for a Time Fantasy swamp tileset-- but they were all disconnected across multiple releases and add-ons. My plan for today's release was to compile and edit all of them into a new set for you-- but I ended up only getting as far as this, so I'm planning for this to be part 1, and the re...

The Myco-folk

Hello! I have a big one today, based on a popular patron request!

In following with this month's theme of trying to catch up on some of this year's patron requests-- this one stood out to me as a good chance to make a nice beefy release. 

A set like this should be able to populate a unique area in your game and help expand the variety of your world.

There are two core designs here, and each one has ...

SV Battler: Crusader

Hello, today's request is based on a long-time patron request.

It's based on the old sprite you can find here.

I'm not gonna type up any more than that because my fingers are hurting me; that happens on rainy days. I'm an old man -_-...

Classical Statues

Hello! Today's release is based on a popular patron request.

These statues use the same colors as the one in the Ruined Dungeons pack-- so you can use them alongside those and they will match.

Like all of my tile add-ons, this sheet is arranged in a regular grid so they can easily be added to any existing t...

Sex Icons

Hello! Today's release is a small one, but depending on your project, it could be very useful.

These are in the style of my 1000+ Icons Set pack, so you can think about today's release as the official Sex Update for the icons pack! 🤭

Someone asked me about icons like these because he's making a monst...

End of Month November 2023

Man... is there really only one more month in this year? Insane... well, you know the drill-- let's recap this month's productivity!

Patron Releases:

Elements: Chickens and Turkeys

Hello! I hope you had a great Thanksgiving!

Couldn't resist this idea for a Thanksgiving-themed special release!

The chickens here are based on the old Time Fantasy chickens, but cleaned up a bit and modified to match the Elements style-- of course the colors as well.

The new thing here is the turkey! I think he came out pretty good.

I look forward to see these birds...

The Jellysquid King

Hello! Today's release is based on a patron request.

These little guys were released for patrons way back in 2019. Based on a patron suggestion, I revisited the design to make a boss-sized version!

Maybe the boss spawns them or something, I think that could work well. In that case,...
