New DLC: Time Elements - Character Core Set, Melancholic, NPC Male Priests Vol 1

Another release day, another new set of packs to make your game sing. Make brand new pixel based characters, score the slow and somber portions of your game, and give some male priests a voice with the latest three packs!

https://store.steampowered.com/app/2228670/RPG_Maker_MZ__Time_Elements__Character_Core_Set/

Build your characters from the ground up with the Time Elements - Character Core Set! Finalbossblue has created new pieces to help you build your perfect heroes! These pixel art pieces are designed to fit a 16x16 pixel grid, meaning that they can be resized to easily work in whichever RPG Maker you want. And with more than 50 pieces, covering hair, shirts, pants, wings, weapons, and more, you have tons of options to fill your game with characters! Fill your game with even more excitement by making use of the animations such as jumping, holding something, swinging a weapon, and sleeping to add in extra movement to cutscenes and dungeon exploration.

Making your own hero can be tough if you’re not used to art programs, so this pack simplifies things by containing a generator! Create your characters with a few clicks of the mouse and then export it in the size you need for Ace or MV/MZ so you can add it right in! Create a bat-winged warrior decked out in red armor, a bearded thief in a green hood, a spear-wielding lady knight, and anyone else your game calls for by choosing the right pieces or hitting the randomize button for new inspiration!

Overwhelmed by the generator and not sure what NPCs to make? Don’t worry, since this pack also includes 16 ready-to-use NPC sprites (including children) and 5 prebuilt heroes so you can add them in and get right to the game-making! A PDF guide is also included, just in case you need some help figuring out a specific thing with the generator or character pieces. Start creating all the pixel art sprites you want with the Time Elements - Character Core Set!

Find the right emotional track for your quieter cities and cutscenes with Melancholic! ayato sound create’s latest music pack offers up 23 BGM tracks to fill the pensive moments in between exciting battles and rushed rescues. Give your players a chance to catch their breath and think with jazz-inspired tunes and other haunting tracks that leave out the powerful electric guitars and drums seen in so many energetic battle themes. Instead, let strings like pianos, violins, and cellos take the lead. Accordions are ready to fill a new city with their familiar trill, and pianos can add a wistful mood to the campfire when your heroes have to take a break in the middle of nowhere.

Think your fast-paced game doesn’t have a spot for any of this pack’s tracks? Think again! This pack doesn’t only have slower and softer tunes, it also has a few tracks with darker vibes. Let the deep notes of a double bass warn your players that the alley they entered probably isn’t the safest place, or have almost choir-like strings and a crackle of electronic beats play when your heroes discover a secret that should have stayed buried. Each track comes in multiple file formats, so you can add them right into your favorite engine. Let your heroes take a break while soothing piano plays or explore a city of love to the tunes of an accordion with the Melancholic music pack!

Give your devout men some voices with NPC Male Priests Vol. 1! TK.Projects is here with even more Japanese voice clips, this time focusing on 12 different characters that you could run into in and around the town’s church or hospital. And with 10 SEs each, you’re sure to find a voice that will fit the scene. Have the son of a healer laugh happily as he runs between pews, older men grumble about a recent monster attack outside the building, a suspicious man laugh to himself in the shadows, and more with this SE pack!

With a spread of ages covered in these voices, you’ll be able to find something that works no matter your character. Give your fatherly priest a voice that sounds appropriately middle-aged and kind, while your handsome healer’s voice is pleasant when he laughs. Let your heroes listen in to an elderly man scolding a teen boy for falling asleep on the job, and discover a new clue to help solve the town’s mystery when the boy sighs and tries to explain himself. Or have an eerie moan wake your heroes up from a nap, only to discover that they’ve been kidnapped!

Adding these SEs to your engine of choice is simple since each track comes in multiple file formats, so what are you waiting for? If you need some voice clips for the town’s head priest or a creepy laugh to warn your players that the man who has a quest for them is untrustworthy, check out NPC Male Priests Vol. 1!
