End of Month August 2022
Hello! It's the end of another month. Let's review our releases and productivity for August.Patreon Releases: Bathroom and Toilet Tiles Bathroom and Toilet Tiles Expanded with Animated Fill Four-Legged Dragon Mangrove Trees Deck Tiles Western Town Tiles Western Saloon Doors Animated Western Town Tiles and Saloon Doors ExtendedNot bad! While the biggest release this month was the extended Western tileset, I think the most impactful will be...
Expanded Wild West Town Tiles
Howdy! I'm finishing up this month with a big expansion for last week's western theme!Last week I started this little impromptu themed set with some basic Western Town Tiles. I followed up with some animated Saloon-style doors.Today's releases are designed to expand out this stuff and finish the wild-west tileset -- since I just couldn't move on until I'd made some of these additions π First up, based on a suggestion that I&...
Western Saloon Doors
Hello! This shouldn't be a surprise- today's release expands on the one from earlier this week.Earlier this week I shared these Western Town tiles. That set includes a saloon-style door, but it's just static tiles. So I've decided to expand on those into fully-animated doors for today's release.This set also includes a couple new regular doors that are designed to match these new wood buildings as well. And for the saloon door...
Western Town Tiles
Hello! I have a significant tile add-on today that I hope you find to be useful.Last week I shared this collection of deck tiles. They gave me the idea to create some wild-west style buildings.So over this past weekend I put together some basic tiles to create a new type of building. These are in the same general style and proportions as the previous house tiles that I've released.You can see in the image above an example how to use them. You...
Deck Tiles
Hello! Today's release is based on a popular patron request!Hah! It's not tomorrow after all!If you saw my update from this morning, you know that this one gave me a little bit of trouble, if only because I couldn't quite come up with the best way to organize it to go with the existing house tiles.See: at first, I was working on making extra tiles to build the deck and railings directly into the wooden support-beams on the house tiles...
Today's post tomorrow
Hi!So today is Friday and you're expecting your regular patreon post today.[[[ UPDATE: Posted it later the same day! ]]]This one is a little more complicated than I originally planned when I started it, so it'll be tomorrow (or maaaybe Sunday) instead of today.It's nothing insane, just organizational stuff (so please don't misunderstand this post and expect something really tremendous LOL) -- here's the details:Based on a popu...
Mangrove Tree
Hello! Today's release is based on a popular patron request!This past weekend I've been working again on the Elements PDF guide. That thing's a bit of a monster-- and as you can imagine the technical writing is boring and draining... I wasn't sure if I was going to get this release done in time for today's post.Because of that-- honestly... hmm... π€ ...the more I look at it, I just want to revisit this and explore ways to m...
Dragon Dragon Rock the Dragon
Hello! Today's release is a big guy... well, a bigger version of a big guy that we're familiar with...Earlier this year, I created this giant Wyvern sprite. The whole wyvern vs dragon thing was brought up a few times (two legs = wyvern, four legs = dragon), and I've seen some interest in a "proper dragon" since then.Well, today's the day. I used the original Wyvern as a base and expanded him to be a real four-legged dragon...
Fill your Bathtub with Water
Hello... weird title for today LOL, not sure what to call this post!Today's release has some extra tiles and some little animations that expand on the modern bathroom tile add-on from last week.First up, a simple expansion to the previous add-on. It's the same set but with some extra tiles for variations of the bathtub when filled with water. Honestly this was just a super simple edit, so I went ahead with some other little animations as ...
*flushes toilet*
Hello! Today's tiles are based on a popular patron request.These have been on the request list for a long time now. Nice to finally have these for the Time Fantasy style!I could potentially expand these more and make a little bathroom set: upright shower cabinet, shower curtains, towel rack, maybe even urinals for a public restroom... But for now, I decided to focus on the basics so they will have the most general use. Let me know if it would...
Elements Generator Update
Hello! I have some info to share with you today for the upcoming Elements release!I mentioned in a previous post that I was looking into options to expand the Elements generator to include different skin tone variations. Well, thanks to the hard work of my pal Locke, who programmed the generator app, we got it working!Unfortunately I don't have the updated download available just yet, because there's one small bug I need to fix (my fault,...
Request Thread August 2022
Hello! It's another new month here on patreon :)Post here with an asset request. I'll fill what I can and release each as I finish them. The requested assets will be released to the whole patron group.------Suggestions: Requests with likes from other patrons will have priority. The more likes, the higher chance of doing it. Repeats are OK -- if I didn't get to a request from a previous month, feel free to post it again here. Stuff wit...

Warden Full Walking Sheet
Hello! Today's release is based on a patron request.You'll remember The Warden from last month.There's been some interest from patrons for a full walking sprite for the Warden boss character. So -- here he is today! This sprite has a full four-direction walking sprite for both color variations.I hope that you find this useful!Downloads - Blue Warden: Warden Full Sheet - 100% Warden Full Sheet - 200% (RMVX) Warden Full Sheet - 300% (MV...
The Witch Queen
Hello! I hope you had a great weekend. Here's something new!This is an idea that I've had for a couple of weeks now.The witch queen is a classic fantasy archetype, and I thought that a sprite like this would be useful to create a memorable character.The interesting thing about this character is that she's designed to be part of the Time Fantasy style, but she's significantly taller than normal TF sprites... she's a full head t...
Overworld Jungle Tiles
Hello! Today's release is based on a patron request.I'm back today with some more stuff for the new overworld collection. This release is a new set of tree-canopy tiles, designed for use as a jungle (or maybe even could be used as some sort of thick swamp area).The single jungle tree here is based on the palm trees and jungle trees from the old world map tiles-- I used it as a guide and updated it to fit with the more recent higher-qualit...
RPG Architect??
Hello! Today's post is a special preview of something different.I want to shout out RPG Architect. It's a new RPG-creation engine being created by a buddy of mine -- the same one who put together the generator that's become a key part of the Elements character set.I'm not just promoting it though LOL -- I want to show it off because I helped design some of the big features, so it's something that I've been working on too!Y...
Elements Children Full Sheets (and skin palettes)
Hello! Today's release is a special pre-release with some useful sprites.I spent all weekend working on the PDF guide for the upcoming final release of the Elements character core set -- and there's still a lot more to do on just the guide.I think I've underestimated how much work it would take to write up the guide -- with the generator, unique color palettes, and the general amount of customization -- it's a lot more involved th...
Tree Growth Stages
Hello! Today's release is based on a popular patron request.This has been a popular patron request for some time now, and I've finally gotten around to putting these together for today's release.There are three types of trees represented here, based on the previous releases: New Pine Tree White Birch Trees New Oak TreesThere's 5 stages represented here: seedling, sapling, young tree, full tree, and stump.The full-sized trees in th...
bonus base anim: climbing
Hello! This is a quick little bonus freebie.There's an animation like this in the Elements set. I'd thought that there was one for Time Fantasy already, but apparently it's not in the archives. So I made this together really quickly this morning, and decided to share it as a bonus release.There's only one direction here (facing north). If you imagine the way that this animation would be used in an RPG (on a ladder, or maybe a wall...
Summer Mid-Year Meta Progress Update (elements lets gooo)
hELLO! (OOPS CAPS LOCK LOL) Today's post a meta update. No asset releases, so you can skip this one if you don't care about this stuff.Anyways, last time I made a meta update, I mostly talked about the reasons for the delay with the full release for Elements (that post also announced the OpenRTP tilesets, which have since been released, and I'm very proud of them).Summer time also means the middle of the year, and since I've just ...
Open RTP Char Base
Hello! This is just a small little thing.You'll remember these OpenRTP Tilesets that I created a month or so ago.I recently created a new character base that's designed to work with them. Like those tiles, this base is freely released to the public domain.Downloads: ORTP Character Base - RM2K/3 Full Sheet ORTP Character Base - RM2K/3 Single ORTP Character Base - MV/MZ SingleNote: I'm not planning on making new characters or anything u...

Hello! It's the final day of Lo-Bit Character Week!So far, we have 64 new lo-bit NPC sprites, released 16 at a time over the past four days. Today's release will double the total amount of sprites!

Lo-Bit CharWeek: Tuesday
Hello! Lo-Bit Character Week continues with day two!This second batch includes a variety of NPCs to fill out towns and cities. There's some generic-looking people like a grumpy old man, a farmer, or a housewife-- who can fill the role of a classic NPC, in addition to some more unique-looking characters that you can come up with a special role for!(Fun fact: this group includes some of the very first sprites that I designed when I was first de...
Lo-Bit CharWeek: Monday
Hello! It's Day One of Lo-Bit Character Week!The first set of sprites includes a bunch of fantasy staples-- king, queen, soldier, wizard, priest, rogue, etc... inspired by traditional classic RPGs. Each character has a three-frame idle animation, so they can walk in place, old-school style!Here are the first sixteen NPC sprites!Downloads: Lo-Bit NPCs- First Batch: 100% (16x16) Lo-Bit NPCs- First Batch: 200% (RMVX) Lo-Bit NPCs- First Batch: 30...

Announcement: Lo-Bit Character Week
Hello! I have an announcement today AND a bonus release!About a year ago, we had a special event week: for Orc Week, I released a new character battler every day for an entire week. Those posts were pre-scheduled while I took a week-long vacation away from the computer.Well, it's summer time, and my yearly one-week vacation has come around. So, naturally: I pre-scheduled a weekload of content! I might be away from the computer, but the releas...
