New DLC: Meal Time Tileset - Fantasy, Heroine Character Generator 3 for MZ

https://store.steampowered.com/app/1816290/RPG_Maker_MZ__Meal_Time_Tileset__Fantasy_Edition/

What do a birthday party, a king’s dining room and a restaurant have in common? They all call for stunning food, well arranged on the best plates available and ready to let your taste buds tingle!

With the Meal Time pack there won’t be an empty table left in your game, unless you really want it to be. Filled with mouth watering goods, this set has everything your heroes could be craving for. Be it a rustic homemade pie from your main character's grandmother or a three course meal, starting with a delicious vegetable soup, followed by a sushi platter and closing with a dessert of fruit, the possibilities are endless. And for your more adventurous gourmets there are also some more fantastic options available - are you brave enough to give the shark head a try? Do the faces on the vegetables keep you from trying them

So, no matter your game or setting, there is something in here for you. Maybe your too-late-to-school protagonist has to run past the beautiful pancake stack their mom made for them or that your fantasy heroes enjoy a hearty filling meal in a tavern along the way, you will find many scenarios become even better with these. And on top of that, there are also some spoiled dishes included which could be very interesting for horror settings or as details in abandoned places.

Do you ever feel like you run out of options for your heroines, especially for a modern setting, and are looking for a broad selection of cool new pieces? Then there is no need to search anymore, as the Heroine Character Generator 3 for MZ comes with so many clothes, hairstyles, and accessories that you can spend hours trying out the best combinations for your unique characters!

Maybe you want to have a cute sheep cosplayer be part of your party, fully dressed up from the wooly body suit to the headpiece with little horns? Or you want to be the healer of your contemporary game to be a nurse with the appropriate clothes? You could round this up by tying her hair into pigtails so they don’t get in her way when she cares for her fellow party mates. With a total of twenty different outfits there are many routes you can take. You can even have your characters change clothes midgame! Each of them can be worn with one of the eight individual headpieces that are included as well, so why not finish your character design for example with a sweet little striped bow on the head?

With four of each front and rear hair there are plenty of options on how to arrange your heroine’s hair to give her the perfect look! Do you want it to be tied up in ox horns or maybe should it be shoulder length with cute bangs and a braided midsections? That and much more is possible with this pack!

Enjoy the nearly endless options of combinations and create your perfect strong female heroines, ready to take out their enemies!

New DLC: Big Garden Tiles, Hero Music Collection

A new outdoors tileset with an amazing almost fairy tale style! Plus another epic soundtrack from Ayato Sound Create! Let's look at our latest releases.

https://store.steampowered.com/app/1812330/RPG_Maker_MZ__Big_Garden_Tiles/

Have you been wanting to include a game section where your heroes shrink, but don’t have giant plants to help sell the illusion? Do you want to make a cute fairy village where they all live in mushroom houses? Then check out Big Garden Tiles! This tile pack contains tilesets to help add even more nature and magic to your maps!

With flowers that tower over your heroes and acorns the size of their heads, it’ll be obvious that they’ve fallen down the rabbit hole into a new and magical world! Giant beds of roses and tulips along with house-sized mushrooms let you create amazing towns for fairies and garden gnomes, and the included interior sets offer up some perfect furniture to decorate their homes. WIth all sorts of wooden cabinets (some that are still growing!) and beds with a selection of comfy blankets, you can make the forest home of their dreams for these magical creatures.

And if your game doesn’t include adventuring through overgrown parks? Then you could still make use of the normal-sized plants to make great gardens. Add some cheery daffodils to front yards, and show how lazy certain npcs are by covering their lawns with dandelions! Fairy rings made of colorful mushrooms could be used as teleportation spots, or just add some variety to your forests’ undergrowth with morels and chanterelle mushrooms.

Also included are sprites for gnomes and glowing fairies to add even more magic to your mushroom villages! Or use the stone gnome as a cute garden decoration - just be careful if you spot its eyes glowing red. A bright red hat is also included, giving you the option to dress your heroes up in something a bit more suitable when visiting a gnome town.

This pack comes with tiles sized for both Ace and MV/MZ, so you can use it in your preferred engine. Add some fun new tiny adventures to your game with Big Garden Tiles!

https://store.steampowered.com/app/1812540/RPG_Maker_MZ__Hero_Music_Collection/

Add some more epicness to your games’ soundtracks with Hero Music Collection! Ayato Sound Create has crafted 25 BGMs to help you find the perfect tracks for a variety of scenes! To get your players excited to play right from the get-go, why not pick one of the energetic tunes as your title screen music? When those songs pop up again during battles or scenes, your players will know something important is going on!

With a variety of instruments used, you can easily give different parts of your cities their own tracks to put your players in the right mindset for where they are. An upbeat bass and guitar would be great for an outdoor market or port, while a quirky electronic song is perfect for an underground bar. Play soft piano and strings during your game’s calmer moments, when your heroes finally have a chance to catch their breath and share some secret feelings with each other. And when your heroes finally face the final boss, give them pulsing drums to get them ready for the fight of their lives!

This pack includes ogg, m4a, and mp3 file formats for every song, so you can easily add it to your game in any engine! Give Hero Music Collection a listen today!

New DLC: Super Retro World - Overworld Pack, Japanese School Girls Vol 7

This week, we expand on two previous sets with more an additional tileset to follow up the previous Super Retro World set, and another Japanese School Girls pack!

https://store.steampowered.com/app/1802740/RPG_Maker_MZ__Super_Retro_World__Overworld_Pack/

Is your pixelated adventure across a fantasy world lacking a suitable world map to explore? Super Retro World - Overworld Pack has you covered! Gif is back with another installment in the Super Retro World series, this time focusing on pixel art to help you create overworld maps for your games.

This pack’s tilesets cover grass, sand, and snow to help you create a broad world with plenty of different locations to explore. And with three different colors of water to show depth, you can easily create a chain of islands your heroes can explore with a raft while keeping the larger continent visible but off limits until they find a bigger boat. Once they’ve reached that main continent, give them plenty to look at with magical forests, snowy castles, and pyramids as they travel across different biomes.

Many of the tiles are designed to be mixed and matched, letting you create a winding mountain range or a thick forest that follows along raised cliffs on the continent. Place single houses around a stone tower to create a magical town, or keep a city safe by placing its castle and houses inside tall strong walls. After your heroes had to explore a wide and rather empty desert, why not let them stumble upon a secret oasis with a small village built around it where they can rest and refuel.

With versions sized for both Ace and MV/MZ, you can easily start mapping with these in your preferred engine. Give your world maps some pixel art love with Super Retro World - Overworld Pack!

Have you been searching for the right voice for your young heroine? Then give Japanese School Girls Vol. 7 a listen! TK Projects’ latest sound effect pack is packed with more tracks performed by a voice actress to help bring your female characters to life in your games.

With 248 SE to choose from, there are plenty of places you could use this pack! Have a character’s younger sister give a happy “bye-bye!” when she heads off to school, or give a sweet character a high-pitch voice when she speaks. If your game includes a gift-giving mechanic, why not have your heroine voice her thanks for a thoughtful gift or her displeasure when you try to give her some trash? Find the perfect phrase for your scenes by checking the pack’s pdf file that lists each SE’s meaning. And you’ll find more than just simple phrases in this pack, with a selection of breath SEs you can use to add a bit more emotion to your dialogue even when a pre-made phrase doesn’t fit.

This pack also includes the SEs in both OGG and M4A file formats, making it simple to use in your favorite engines. Add another layer to your characters with Japanese School Girls Vol. 7!

Now that the nights are getting longer and the leaves are falling from the trees, it is time to prepare for winter… and other things. If you stay up late, you might hear sounds that are both unfamiliar and unsettling. Wolves howling and other noises. You don’t really want to know who is responsible for them - or rather what.

This Halloween brings you two totally free amazing new charsets to spice up your games. Watch out for the mummy, as touching it might result in being cursed! Maybe you can knock it down anyway? The sprites for it lying on the floor are ready to go!

In its company we have a cute yet scary jack o'lantern spirit, who could either be an antagonist or friendly helper. No matter which you go with, it has dressed up in a fabulous tuxedo and a shredded cape and is ready to star in your adventure!

Have a happy Halloween and may these two enhance your games - the spooky ones or any other!

https://store.steampowered.com/app/1784400/RPG_Maker_MZ__90s_Retro_Sounds__Story/

If you want your retro game to be more than fights and exploring areas, this pack is just for you. With those 14 chiptune style tracks you can not only emulate the nostalgic spirit of some of your favourite games but also have the perfect tunes to underlay your cutscenes, intros, outros, credit scenes and other parts that show the player your game’s story and world.

Have them play in the background while flipping through ancient scrolls, illustrated books or while looking back at an elongated flashback to the past, vision of the future, or things going on just right at that very moment. No matter whether these scenes are somber, joyful or tense, you’ll have the right music for any mood!

So if you are in need of some soft and sorrowful tunes to lay under your hero’s tragic backstory, you can be sure to find that within this set. If you want a dramatic track as you zoom over to your enemy's headquarters as they plan an assault on your hero’s home country, then you’ve got a track for that, too.

With all these inspiring pieces at hand, it will be much easier for you to imagine and play out all those sequences that port your story though the screen and speakers to your players’ imagination.

Listen in and have fun with the 90’s Retro Sounds Story Pack!

https://store.steampowered.com/app/1784401/RPG_Maker_MZ__90s_Retro_Sounds__Country/

Take a break from the dungeon crawling to rest and recover in relaxing villages with 90s Retro Sounds - Country! Takayuki AMANUMA’s pack focuses on tunes perfect for old school towns. Made by sampling real instruments, this pack’s chiptune songs have a unique style while still being reminiscent of those old games we played and loved as kids.

This pack’s 11 BGMs give you plenty to work with to create the perfect village atmosphere. Play soft and restful songs when your player visits quaint farming villages or when they return home after a long trip, or choose one of the songs with an energetic beat when your heroes enter a busy royal fort. Give your magic shop or fortune teller’s tent a fitting mystical tune with hypnotising horns, and after your heroes have spent all day shopping play a relaxing track as they make their way down empty streets to the village’s inn for a good night’s sleep. Bustling port cities and trading villages could do with a song with a fast-paced tempo to match the towns’ hectic natures, or use the faster tempoed songs when your player visits a town’s cheery festival.

And for those scenes where your player is meeting the village leader or maybe even a prince in disguise? Then pick one of the regal tunes with upbeat organ tones. If all your player’s adventuring has led them to a long-forgotten city of technology, the pack’s last track with a metallic-sounding beat may be just what the scene calls for.

So if your game’s retro towns need some fitting tunes, pick up 90s Retro Sounds - Country today!

https://store.steampowered.com/app/1799780/RPG_Maker_MZ__Japanese_School_Girls_Vol6/

Need more female voice lines to make your cutscenes a bit more interesting? Then take a listen to Japanese School Girls Vol.6! TK Projects’ newest sound effect pack brings you 245 SEs from a professional voice actress to help breathe life into your characters. Covering all sorts of emotions, this pack is perfect for a school girl with a calm personality.

Have your class president greet other students with a happy hello or wish your player a good day when school ends. If your player is a troublemaker who refuses to follow the rules, then your class president could reprimand them with a few angry lines. Or grab some of the shy SEs to give a voice to your quiet bookworm character when your player finds them reading alone in the library. Once your player has befriended her, add some sweet giggles to her scenes to show that she’s relaxed enough to laugh at your player’s jokes.

This pack includes a pdf that covers the English and Japanese meanings of every SE, making it easier for you to know which track to use no matter the situation. Even if the included lines don’t quite fit your scenes, the selection of breaths and sighs can add to the emotion of the dialogue without distracting from what your character says. Give your sweet characters a matching adorable voice with Japanese School Girls Vol.6!

We also have 6 season appropriate (read: HORROR) DLC that were previously only available as DLC for MV that have been added to the MZ lineup!
