Three new releases for your projects: Kokoro Reflections is back with new Casino Tileset, more NPC Voices, plus a pixel monster pack!

https://store.steampowered.com/app/2135070/

Grab your gold and hope Lady Luck is on your side, because the KR JACKPOT - Casino Tileset pack is here! Kokoro Reflections has created the perfect pack for all of your gambling minigames. With tiles to make walls of slot machines, roulette and poker tables, and bar details to celebrate your hero’s winnings (or drown their sorrow after they turned 100 gold into a single coin), it’s time to give your game’s casino an incredible makeover!

Choose the right floor and walls from this pack for your casino depending on the location and just how rich the clientele is, the underground gambling house hidden away in a port town may stick with simple brown tiles and brick walls while the upscale casino near a city center goes with decorative tile floors topped with cheerful rugs and nice wood or stone walls. Or if your game is set in a modern or sci-fi world, then go wild with the neon teal and pink options, with geometric floors, neon floor lights and walls, and sturdy metal walls with built-in neon stripes. Fill your casinos with tables for card games like poker and blackjack or dice games like craps, topping some of them with dice, card, and chip tiles, or create walls of slot machines for NPCs to sit and play. Don’t forget that a casino needs more than just gambling to run! Make an in-house bar with plenty of drinks out of this pack’s shelves and counters, and set up a cash-out area with computers, cameras, and ATMs so your players can turn their hard-earned chips into gold.

This pack also includes 3 large door sprites to help you welcome your players into the casino with bright glass doors and decorative white patterns, or use the plainer white doors as a way to sneak into the casino’s back rooms to find out which villain is stealing people’s winnings. Give your game’s gambling club a bright and exciting upgrade with KR JACKPOT - Casino Tileset!

Bring some new NPC voices to your game with NPC Female Citizens Vol1! TK. Projects is back with another voice pack, this time focusing on a variety of women you could find in a castle city. With voice types from cheerful young merchants to creaky elderly women, this pack’s 12 Japanese voices are ready to help you add some cheer (or fear) to the town’s commerce section.

10 different SEs for each voice type means you have 120 SEs to choose from! Find the right voice clip for every situation with options for greetings, anger, agreement, questioning, thinking, worry, laughter, happiness, surprise, and fear. Have an energetic female blacksmith shout in anger when someone belittles her works, or give a happy cheer when your players agree to buy her unique and powerful weapons. Diversify your shop stall merchants with different voices, so that you could use the same NPC sprites in different cities but give them unique SEs to make them really feel like new characters. Let the same sprite be a happy middle-aged fishmonger in one town and a scatterbrained young shopkeeper in another. Multiple file formats make it simple to add these SEs to your favorite engine, so what are you waiting for? Pick up NPC Female Citizens Vol1 and give more of your NPCs voices!

Is your game lacking some gorgeous pixel art enemies? Have you been looking for more options when it comes to plant foes? Do you just want to include some unique creatures in your battles? Then it’s time to check out SeraphCircle Pixel Monster 1! SeraphCircle went outside and touched some grass to find inspiration for this pack’s incredible nature-themed battlers, with 58 unique battlers to choose from. Get ready to battle against the rose-themed half-man/half-plant alraunes, staff-wielding druids, sharp-toothed fish, hordes of flies, and man-eating plants found in this pack!

Have your heroes fight hornets, centipedes, praying mantises, and even spotted ladybugs when they explore a fairy’s garden, and let them face gross flies and cockroaches when they jump down the well to explore rotten underground tunnels. Or battle against trees, vines coiled around skulls, and puckering flowers while searching a forest poisoned by dark magic. If you need some more magical foes, then throw some butterfly-winged sylphs and glowing spheres of energy into the mix. Each battler has 2 versions, which include recolors and small variations in weapons or body parts, meaning this pack contains 116 ready-to-use battlers! Face off against teams of lightning-wielding yellow jaguars and water-wielding blue jaguars, or try to survive against a duo of green and red orges who are armed with a club and battleax, respectively.

And if that wasn’t enough, every battler also comes in 5 different scales, making it a breeze to find a fit for your game’s resolution and style. Use the 1x or 2x sizes for smaller screens so that the monsters don’t fill the entire screen or grab the 4x or 5x to create battles where the foes tower over your heroes! Fill your dungeons with weird and wild creatures and plant monsters with SeraphCircle Pixel Monster 1!

September is here and we have a beast of a release day for you! New generator parts for MZ, a new soundtrack, and more NPC voices are here!

https://store.steampowered.com/app/2117780/

The title of this pack already tells you everything about its content, but let's take a closer look! This is a conversion of the Beast man generator pack for MV, which was carefully ported and reworked to fit the different poses and style of MZ. With it you get the parts to create brave big cat based, terrifying wolf based and majestic dragon based male characters straight from the generator.

With all the different horns, ears and tails you can individualize them to your liking, maybe you want a canine with floppy ears and a bushy tail or a more lion based feline with a tail with a tuft of fur at the tip and round ears? This and a lot more is possible with this set, and due to the huge amount of additional clothes to dress your beast men up, this pack could also be interesting for people that don’t necessarily plan on even having beast characters in their game.

With four different head pieces, a whopping twenty different outfits and four front and rear hairs each, this is a gold mine for everyone who is looking just for some more variation on male character parts as well. From fabulous armors to fabric clothing there is a lot to get, and you can round the look of your characters up by adding the little crown or the dashing and delicate golden headpiece made out of chains on their heads.

For all of you looking to add some further variation to your male characters, here you go!

Have your heroes adventure into a paladin’s dreams with the Paladin Dream OST Music Pack! HitherYon Games has released their game’s music for other RPG Maker devs to use, with 24 tracks that can find a home in your own games.

Start a somber journey to the slow Explore, with low horns and a music box’s chimes ready to play in the background as your heroes prepare to leave their destroyed home town. Once they’ve regained their will to fight, have your heroes explore their world to the steady beat of Wilds, or take a break while the jaunty tunes of Tavern plays. When it’s time to face the final boss let Evil play, with its calm pianos ready to trick your heroes into thinking this foe isn’t anything special right before it shifts into a life-or-death duel. Grab one of the pack’s vocal tracks such as Chant3 or Hymn to add some extra oomph to a scene. Why have your heroes enter a possessed church to a normal song when you could make the moment stand out with drums and a mysterious woman singing? Or have your credits roll while a song about heroes plays.

Alongside BGM, this pack also includes shorter ME tracks like Defeat, Game Over, and Victory so you can replace the defaults like you’ve been meaning to. With multiple file formats this pack’s tracks are simple to add to your games, so you don’t need to worry about hearing the perfect track but not being able to add it to your preferred engine!

Give more of your townsfolk voices with NPC Female Villagers Vol.2! TK. Projects is back with another set of 12 character voices to help bring life to your towns and villages. Have cheerful girls yell hello as your heroes walk by, a sleepy young shopkeeper groan if you wake her up without buying anything, or an elderly woman gasp in fear when your heroes ask for advice about a magical book they stumbled upon in a dungeon.

With 10 different SEs for each character voice, you’re ready to add some more emotional reactions to your female NPCs as they wander their hometowns. If your heroes start the game when they’re young, fill their village’s small schoolhouse with the calls of young girls as they play and try to avoid doing classwork. Teach your players the basics of side quests by having them hear the high-pitched whine of a scaredy-cat classmate who needs them to rescue her favorite toy from the basement. Or skip the childhood chapter of your game entirely, and use the middle-aged and elderly female voices for shopkeepers and townsfolk to add some extra noise to your game’s villages so that it has human chatter in the background. This pack is ready to drop right into your favorite engine, so if you’ve been wanting to add some extra liveliness to your NPCs then check out NPC Female Villagers Vol.2!

More characters, more music, it's time for another release day!

Each character has a sprite, a faceset with 8 emotions, front view enemy battlers, bust images, and a SV battler, giving you everything you need to form a story for your newest party member (or villain)! Find helpful allies in the armored solemn assassin, pink-haired berserker, staff-wielding monk, and brunette defender, or fill your towns with NPCs who can do more than just sell items, such as the young dark elf, careless elf doctor, and the cheerful maid who seems to have an unusual knowledge of ice magic.

If you’ve been seeking some more mythological heroines, then this pack has you covered! Have an onyx-armored demon woman strike your heroes with dark magic, or turn a normal battle into a puzzle when a jiangshi hops into the battle and refuses to stay dead! Have the pink-haired grim reaper face off against an almighty goddess, joined by a mace-wielding 3-eyed fighter and an upgraded catgirl: a tiger girl!

Soar over the world with We’re Bird People Now, an upbeat track with a chipper beat and trumpet that has you imagining rolling fields of green just waiting for you to explore!

And after the adventure is finished (or when your heroes need a nap!), have them visit a village where Feels Like Home plays with its calming tunes ready to help them relax and recover.

Each track comes in multiple file formats so it’s easy to add right into your game! So if you’ve been waiting to find just the right track for certain scenes in your fantasy adventure, tune in to Bit by Bit Sound - 16 Bit Fantasy Music!

It's Wednesday, and that means it is... an early release this week! Check out the new expanded Asian Empires set from Joel Steudler, or a fantastic new set of characters for the Super Retro World style!

https://store.steampowered.com/app/2117620/RPG_Maker_MZ__Asian_Empires_Music_Pack/

Joel Steudler has revamped and expanded the Asian Empires Mini Bundle and created the Asian Empires Music Pack! Containing extended and remastered versions of the 8 tracks from the original pack, plus 12 all new tracks sharing the same Asian inspirations!

The three new battle tracks all focus on very different settings, Sunset Duel being lighter and grasping the carefully placed strikes, with Seven Samurai and Horse Archers being more gravid. They all would also greatly serve as the music to play during more intense cinematic scenes. Seven Samurais for example would fit an army marching up, ready for a fight. As the only dungeon track in this new songs, Prison Cells is very slow and quiet, with some sudden and distant noise, as if a door fell shut somewhere else.

Since your heroes probably won’t stay in one place there are four new tracks that would carry them to other locations. The Great Steppe, Pyroclastic Plateau, Shogun’s Domain and Ten Thousand Miles all have that “being on a journey feeling” to them, but each has its own unique sound patterns and vibe. And where are your heroes traveling anyways? No matter where they are going, they will likely stop by in a town, and with Fishing Boats and Peasant life you can pick the style of settlement they come to. Is it a calm place, by a sea or a river, or is it a little more lively, a place filled with hardworking people working on their chores?

To round the new tracks up, we have Jade Princess and Eternal Dynasty, two tracks that could work great as theme songs for characters or a dramatic scene.

https://store.steampowered.com/app/2117710/RPG_Maker_MZ__Asian_Empires_Expansion/

Already have the original Asian Empires Mini Bundle and want to upgrade to the full Music Pack? Then pick up the Asian Empires Expansion. This pack completes the mini bundle with the remaining material included in the full Music Pack!

https://store.steampowered.com/app/2117610/RPG_Maker_MZ__Super_Retro_World__Character_Pack/

Depending on the type of game you make, this pack is either some fantastic looking additional assets or an amazing set that gives you everything you need to implement the battle mechanic you want!

But first things first: As every other iteration in this series, the Super Retro World - Character Pack comes in a charming 8 bit look and works with every other pack from this series or most other retro styles. If you look at the new characters, you might see some familiar faces… Basil, is that you? Due to the size the iconic characters are just recognizable if you really know them, and they all come with a recolor version so you have some additional diversity without putting any extra work into them. On top of that, you also get a whole bunch of monsters, most four directional and some static ones to have something to put against those heroes. And fight they can: as the special feature of this set is the Action RPG compatibility. Each of the character sheets in this set comes with a folder full of attack animations for all the human characters to be used in map battles!

With a whole pool of different shields, swords and staffs, you can not only cover a full range of classes, but also have the visuals change whenever your characters change their equipment.

In addition to the graphics you will also get a small tutorial on how to use them in VX Ace, MV and MZ with existing scripts and plugins!

And even if you don’t plan to have on map battles, those extra poses and characters still look dashing! Check them out and see if you like them!
