27 pixel monster sprites for a monster tamer / capturing game in the gameboy style.

Choose between 165 parts to create your very own slime, front and back sprites!
Just a suggestion but making monsters like that might be an option too, although monster capture games are fairly niche (Even though its what I personally prefer) sideview enemies with animations would most likely be the best bet as they can be used in classical FF like games and sideview scroller type games like Mario/Castlevania etc.
People who make indie games usually want everything in their game to look as similar in style as possible, so a pack with general icons would be great imo. You can look up RPG Maker icon sheet to see the usual stuff people want. Basically more misc stuff :P The people who sell the most assets seems to be the ones who have the full package (icons, tilesets, characters etc..) so a developer can make an entire game with it. This is ofc a large undertaking but it seems to work for them as far as I can see.
I was about to add that maybe the misc pack should be free in order to attract people to your profile, but you already made a free tileset pack I see. Having free packs works great, I have a shitty weapon pack with like 30k downloads, people love free stuff xD
Difficult to explain... I suppose its that they are very detailed in the shading so it makes it difficult for amateurs like me to re-color them to fit other stuff. Doing it the other way around (applying your shading and color palette to other stuff) is even more difficult :P I have no idea if this is an issue for others though, I suppose I just want consistency throughout my game but I am not at your level :P
Made these and a ton more for a monster capture game, these are in my free sample pack available here: Retro Pixel Monsters - Sample Pack by Willibab (itch.io)

Made for monster taming games, but can also be used as regular enemies.
These are from my free sample pack, I also have 4 paid packs available with a lot more creatures then the sample pack.
