Send your party members to school to master their powers and compete with other groups with the Heroine Character Generator 11 for MZ pack! Gee-kun-soft is back with another pack of generator parts to help your heroines dress their best. 62 new parts offer up a variety of options to help you fill your modern worlds with even more characters. Give your heroine slightly pointed ears to hint at a magical heritage, let the city’s different schools each have unique uniforms, and suit up in dark green tactical gear when it’s time to defeat evil!

Let your heroine dress differently depending on the time of day and what she’s up to by having her wear a school uniform and a cute flower in her hair when attending lessons, and relax in a track suit and baseball cap during her off time. Create a princess NPC with long flowing hair and a gorgeous kimono with bright eyes who shows her emotions through the tilt of her eyebrows. This pack also includes updated grad_common and grad_eyes images so you can give your characters some new color palettes to make them stand out even more. If you’ve been searching for some more school uniforms or just need a few more expressions for your party members to make during dramatic cutscenes, check out the Heroine Character Generator 11 for MZ pack!

New DLC: KR Luminous Abyss Tileset, KR Phosphor Forest Tileset

Explore bioluminescent oceans and magical forests with two new tilesets from Kokoro Reflections!

https://store.steampowered.com/app/3903410/RPG_Maker_MZ__KR_Luminous_Abyss_Tileset/

Explore the darkest depths of the ocean where the only light is bioluminescent coral with the KR Luminous Abyss Tileset! Kokoro Reflections dives back into underwater MV/MZ-sized tiles with this pack, offering up a variety of cool blue rocks and dirt to help you build locations that sunlight can’t touch. A1, A2, A4, A5, and 4 unique B sheets (with a number of variations that adds up to 18 sheets) can create dark rocky ocean floors, caverns filled with lava and magic-infused walls, whale graveyards, ethereal coral gardens, and more!

Reward your players for finishing a difficult sidequest with an item that lets them breathe underwater, and create incredible locations for them to explore with these tiles. Let them wander around angled cliff faces and behind natural stone arches in search of sunken treasure or cave openings, and break up the monotony of blue and gray stone with pops of color from neon pink, blue, and green veins of crystal. Coral and aquatic plants can add a bit more light to the world, in 3 main color gradients (purple/blue, purple/blue/green, and rainbow) so you can mix and match to fit the area. This pack also includes a character sprite for black smoke so that you can show pools of magma interacting with the ocean’s water. Or skip the water entirely and use these tiles to create caves with pockets of air deep underground! Pick up the KR Luminous Abyss Tileset and give your heroes new cool spaces to visit!

https://store.steampowered.com/app/3903400/RPG_Maker_MZ__KR_Phosphor_Forest_Tileset/

Give your magical forest an uncommon vibe with the KR Phosphor Forest Tileset! Kokoro Reflections is here with a MV/MZ-sized tileset perfect for making a dark dungeon deep in the middle of a forest. Instead of a ton of autotiles to choose from, use 3 black ground tiles with varying amounts of grass to point your heroes in the right direction, and have the visual focus be on bioluminescent mushrooms and flowers! Small fairy rings of mushrooms and little glowing flowers can add a hint of magic to relatively normal maps with lush bushes and trees, and massive mushrooms and moonflowers that loom over your heroes’ heads will surely let them know that they’re not in a normal forest anymore. Organic lines of moss and vines are perfect for making the edges of the explorable area, so you can create open spaces without filling the entire map with tiles. Add a glowing river that cuts through the maps that can act as healing points or refill magic potions, or make a pool of water with a waterfall emptying into it the center of the forest that also acts as the home to a powerful optional boss.

This pack also includes 3 character sprites for glowing orbs. Use them to mark the path for your heroes, or have them act as fearful fairies that vanish if your heroes get too close. Or have pale orbs react to touch to light up the area to reveal hidden pathways and treasures. If you’ve been wanting to add a unique magical spring tucked away in a normal forest, pick up the KR Phosphor Forest Tileset!

New DLC: KR Vintage Cars - 60s and 70s Animation Pack, KR Vintage Steam Train Ti

Dress up your transportation with two new vintage transportation themed packs from Kokoro Reflections!

https://store.steampowered.com/app/3903390/RPG_Maker_MZ__KR_Vintage_Cars__60s_and_70s_Animation_Pack/

Become the king of the road with the KR Vintage Cars - 60s and 70s Animation Pack! Kokoro Reflections is here with a massive set of MV/MZ-sized car character sheets to turn your empty roads into auto shows. 19 different characters inspired by 60s and 70s cars are ready to fill your streets with racing muscle cars, have convertibles cruise beachside roads, give your farms some fitting trucks, and more! Have your heroes travel the world in a VW-inspired bus so that no matter where they go they’ll always have a place to rest and recover, or let them zip around the highways in bright red hot rods with cool flared fins. Tell your players that your game takes place in the 70s by showing the roads filled with station wagons and rounded bugs, or use the pack’s stylish coupes to make your world feel modern without having to state a specific date.

Each car comes in 25 colors so your traffic jams can become rainbows of color! Fill the roads with NPC cars in browns, greens, and blues while your heroes and villains drive around in bright reds and purples so it’s always easy to see which cars are important. Let your players buy their favorite car and then attach specific buffs to different colors, so a teal car increases their magic attack while silver increases all defense and fuschia adds a boost to charisma. Or just give your players the option to repaint their cars whenever they want and have those changes show when they’re driving around! If you’ve been wanting to add more good looking cars to your games, pick up the KR Vintage Cars - 60s and 70s Animation Pack!

All aboard! Leave navigation to the experts while your heroes rest between dungeons (or solve a murder mystery) thanks to the KR Vintage Steam Train Tileset! Kokoro Reflections is back with another transportation themed MV/MZ-sized tileset to help your heroes get around a large world. Add some train tracks to all of your cities and turn fast travel points into awesome steam trains that roll into town with intricate red and gray locomotives and a long train of passenger cars. Create side quests where your heroes need to keep a train safe while it’s transporting fuel or important NPCs, or just let your heroes wander carriage interiors to choose whether to fully heal with a nap in bunk beds or gain a buff by eating some tasty food in the meal car.

A2, A4, B and C sheet tiles are perfect for making wooden carriages with soft green carpets leading your heroes to their seats with metal storage racks about their heads, or follow the rugs farther to reach separate compartments where small tables can hold suitcases and bunk beds are built into the walls. If your heroes snuck onto a train instead, have them hide out behind wooden crates and barrels in the stark metal cargo cars. This pack also includes 11 character sheets to help you add moving trains to your maps. Have the locomotive engine, tanker cars, wood cars, cargo cars, and passenger cars travel in the cardinal directions to show how connected your game’s world is, and use the wooden doors to keep your heroes from entering other people’s compartments before a passenger is murdered. Pick up the KR Vintage Steam Train Tileset pack and let your heroes travel comfortably!
