Monster Monday 11: Slicer Soldier
Hello, I hope you had a nice weekend. Let's continue our summer special event...As we reach the end of the summer, I wanted to make sure that this series includes some creatures that could work in the later areas of a game world, maybe as elite enemies. That got me thinking about some more intimidating designs, something otherworldly or even alien...This is the Slicer Soldier. He is a guardian...
Pirate Skeleton (with SV Battler)
Hello! I have a new character sprite to share today.This guy might seem familiar... Waaaaay back in 2015, I released a set of freebiesbased on character designs from the RPGMaker game Master of the Wind. It was one of my very first add-on releases for the Time Fantasyseries.A patron recently contacted me about commissioning a battler sprite for the skeleton character on that sheet-- the original d...
Monster Monday 10: Lantern Phantom
Hello-- you know what today is! It's Monday!Today's monster is potentially another two-for one-- it depends on how you want to use these in your game. I'll share the behavior that I designed for him, but this one is really flexible.This is the Lantern Phantom-- as a base monster, he's pretty simple and not very threatening... he can go through walls, but keeps his distance so it...
Elements Tilesets with Time Fantasy Colors!
Hello-- today's release is based on a patron suggestion. There's been a lot of talk about the compatibility...Hello-- today's release is based on a patron suggestion.There's been a lot of talk about the compatibility between the classic Time Fantasyseries and the more recent Elementsset. Since both sets use the same base tile-size, they're compatible and can work well together-...

Hello! I hope you had a nice weekend. I'm here today with the first entry for August in our ongoing special summer event...Today's monster is a sneaky little fella... these hobgoblins will hide in crates, barrels, and pottery.

Item Icons (Twilight Lantern)

Monster Monday 8: Mole and Merfolk
Hello! Today's release is a two-for-one!Here's two new enemies that share a unique behavior pattern-- with special animations designed with gameplay in mind: the mole pops up out of the ground and throws a rock towards the player before digging back to safety. The merfolk does the same thing but he pops out of the water.I only implemented the mole in-game for now. It would be easy enough t...
The Card Game Shop (Omega Modern)
It's time to d-d-d-duel! Today I have a new tile add-on for the Omega Modernstyle.After the Card Frame assetsthat I shared earlier in the week, I couldn't resist this idea...It got me thinking of adding a card minigame to an RPG... or even making an entire game about the card battles, like the Pokemon TCG RPGon the game boy... and I immediately knew that this idea would be a perfect fit fo...
Monster Monday 7: Pinecoon
Howdy! Hope you had a good weekend. It's Monday, so you know what that means...For our next entry, I wanted to give him an attack pattern that separated him from the other enemies so far in this series: I introduce you to the pinecoon, a common enemy that you might encounter in the forest zones.This guy's spin attack launches him towards the player-- but he doesn't stop until he crashe...
Lo-Bit UI Card Frames
Hello. I hope you've had a nice week. I'm back today with something a little unusual.So I've been playing a lot of Magiclately, and it's got me thinking a lot about card games... I ended up spending all day putting together this little thing.(We're just looking at the layered containers that make up the card-- the art in the preview above is from an asset pack that I downloaded...
Monster Monday 6: The Marauders
Hello! I promised a big one for today's monster... here they are!So imagine you're out exploring in the world, and you find a ransacked village. It seems that something horrible has happened here! But there's not a soul in sight... until you keep pressing further on... Maybe you follow a trail that the culprits have left... and afew screens out into the wilderness, you stumble into a c...
Muddy Cliff - Swamp Tileset
Hello! Today's release is based on a suggestion in this month's request thread.At the beginning of this year I shared some new terrain and grass tilesfor a new muddy swamp-themed mini-tileset. When I saw the patron request for some cliff tiles to fill out this set, it was an immediate reminder of something that I'd intended to do all along, but it had somehow gotten forgotten amidst al...
Monster Monday 5: Wasp Attack!
Hello, I'm back with another monster sprite for you today!So today's monster is more of a mini-monster release. Because Monday was yesterday and we had the request thread... I almost skipped this week, so I could put a little more time into a more complex monster for next week instead.In the end, I decided to throw together a quick one for today, just because I didn't want to leave you...

Lo-Bit Pack Published on itch
Hello! You might have noticed that yesterday I quietly published the Lo-Bit Packon my itch page.I didn't make a post for it then because I didn't want to overshadow the regularly-scheduled Monster Monday release!Hmm.. maybe that's backwards... ๐ Hey I've never claimed to be good at marketing and promotion!Anyways... if you've been a patron for a while and have been following...
Monster Monday 4: Wurm Dragon
Hello! It's time for the newest monster in our ongoing special event...Today's monster is an important one in the ongoing evolution of enemy complexity. This Wurm Dragonmay look simple-- but he stands out compared to the previous releases because of his multidirectional animations:This enemy's animations come with two diagonal directions-- these directions can then be flipped to create...
Post Apocalyptic City Building Tiles
Hello! Today's release continues with the theme of some other recent releases.Here are some variant tiles of crumbled, decaying, and overgrown city buildings!

Monster Monday 3: Slimes!
Hello! I hope you had a nice weekend. Let's get rolling!Today's monster is another classic-- but we don't want this to be too easy, so I'm sharing a bunch of animations to really make the most out of this simple design.The classic slime monster is a staple of RPGs, both turn-based and action. So of course I knew that I'd have to include the slime in this series. But I've ma...
Post Apocalyptic Street Tiles
Hello! Today's release is based on an idea in the patron request thread.You might recognize the base tiles in the preview image from my Future Fantasy tileset pack. Today's release is an add-on that specifically makes some crumbled/ruined versions of the street tiles from that set, for creating a post-apocalyptic environment.I was planning to put together some ruined variants of the buildi...
Monster Monday 2: Crystal Crab
Hello! I hope your summer is off to a good start! Let's keep it going with...Monster Monday number two! Today's release is... the Crystal Crab.Another simple enemy, but not quite as simple as last week's bat. The crab has two primary animations-- a neutral walk, and a walk with his claws snapping! This way you can have him switch between neutral and aggressive states.Of course, there&#...
Bat Animation Update
Hello! Sorry to bother you today, but I wanted to drop a really quick bonus update for ya.I have a few additional frames of animation for the bat sprite that I shared earlier in the week.I was working on programming in the next enemy for Monday, and in the process I was doing some improvements to the bat as well. I ended up getting a little sidetracked polishing up the bat... I realized that his l...
