Create powerful bunny girls and uniform-wearing mages with the Another World Heroine Generator 4 for MZ pack! Gee-kun-soft’s latest MZ generator pack includes 40 pieces to add new features to your female characters. 20 Clothing options are ready to give your characters some lightweight fabric to wear no matter their class! Give your brawler heroine a bright yellow jacket to distract foes from her fingerless glove punches and thigh high boot roundhouse kicks, while your sorceress wears a decorated pointy hat and robes with flowing sleeves warded with spells to help keep her safe in battle. Modern games can make use of a pantsuit and off-the-shoulder dress, along with a number of uniforms that could fit either a modern or magical academy. Even non-combat characters can enjoy these outfits, give your nurse NPC a lab coat over a dress and have uniforms with a few differences such as gloves or tights so you can keep a company or military group cohesive without having to have everyone dressed completely the same.

5 AccB, 5 Eyes, 5 Front hair, and 5 Rear Hair options can help you show some of your character’s personalities through their appearance. Give your kindest characters soft eyes, or mess with expectations by having the meanest party member have the largest and brightest eyes. Have your by-the-book military woman wear her hair in a short bob with bangs that are also kept perfectly maintained, while the wild archer on the team keeps her hair long and loose with plenty of flyaways. Top your character with a small tilted cap or a beret, or give them a witch’s hat, bunny ears, or a large tiara-type crown to highlight their magic abilities. So if you want more choices for your heroines’ outfits and hairstyles, check out the Another World Heroine Generator 4 for MZ pack!

Explore destroyed castles and forts that were defeated by evil forces with the KR Fortress Ruins Tileset! Kokoro Reflections finished their KR Royal Fortress Tileset and decided that clean and happy castles aren’t the only places your heroes will visit: ruins and war-torn castles are also popular locations! So they turned the bright and cheery tileset into desaturated and destroyed tiles to help you tell the story you want with your maps!

A1, A2, A4, A5, and 3 B sheets are ready for you to make dark and mysterious ruins. Have your players make their way past dead trees and purple poisoned waters until they find an overgrown path surrounded by collapsed stone walls and follow it to an abandoned castle where crumbling roofs and cobwebs show that it’s been years since someone last visited. Or create a demolished version of a fort they visited earlier in the game that they were unable to save from the demon lord. Cupboards falling to pieces and rusting metal pans show how long it’s been since people lived there, while musty beds with the blankets haphazardly thrown aside and rotten food still on plates can help your players realize that this castle was abandoned without warning.

This pack also includes 6 character sprites for large entrance doors, wooden and cell doors, flames, levers, and treasure chests to reward your players for finding their way through destroyed halls and locked rooms. Pick up the KR Fortress Ruins Tileset and create ruins that your hero can slowly repair to turn into their own home, abandoned castles overrun with monsters, military forts for important story cutscenes to goad your players into becoming heroes, and more!
