None of my art is made specifically for any version of RPG Maker, but there are plenty of people making it work. By resizing my tilesets, moving tiles around, and using various plugins. If you need some help, you can join the Mana Seed Discord server and ask the community about any issues you're having.

Yeah, this pack gets regular updates . New hairstyles and such. Someday I'll fill out the empty cells on the sprite sheet, but probably not any time soon 🙄

please refer to the animation guide. it will help a lot.

yep! i make all my Mana Seed stuff entirely in aseprite. it's great for pixel art 👍

no, it's 4 directions

I have no plans to update or take commissions for this asset. A swimming animation may be possible for my Farmer Sprite System, but I'm not working on this one anymore.

I don't know.

There's a list on this page of all the animations this sprite was designed for. Unfortunately, swimming is not among them.

I definitely wouldn't recommend using an image editor to make new sprite sheets. That's that waste of resources i was talking about. Not to mention time and energy better spent elsewhere. Just load the sprite sheet and use your animation editor to choose which frame is showing.

I don't know what game engine you're using, but the Sprite Customizer was made in godot with this free plug-in (and it doesn't require a hundred different sprite sheets to run all the animations): https://feendrache.itch.io/manaseed-character-animator-for-godot

I would rather encourage people to do that part on their own so they might realize they are not limited by some preset animations. 

It's also a waste of resources to fill your game with duplicate redundant sprites. Many frames are used in multiple animations, or mirrored when necessary, for optimization. Better to load one sprite sheet, then have the game use the appropriate frames needed for any given animation.

Right, the sprite customer allows you to put together an outfit and hairstyle, choose the colors they all have, then export a single flattened sprite sheet. Putting together animations is still up to you. You can consult the animation guide for suggestions, but feel free to mix and match different frames to create unique animations.

The Character Base has a longer pick-up animation. When I later made the Farmer Sprite System I decided it was unnecessary for it to be that long.

Look in the "supporting files" folder (with the Farmer Sprite System) for an image called "farmer base animation guide.png". That should help you identify which frames to use for harvesting crops.

Yes, you can technically use them in any version of RPG Maker, plenty of people already do. BUT my tilesets are not explicitly formatted to work with any version of RPG Maker. That means you will need some technically know-how if you want to make it work. You'll need to resize my art, then cut and paste the tiles into arrangements that work for your version. Or you can use a plugin that expands your capabilities. If you join the Mana Seed discord server (link on this page), you can ask other RPG Maker users how they managed to do certain things. 

Good luck!

Thank you so much for the words of encouragement! I'm so glad you've found it useful 😁🙏🏽

Sorry if the "promotion" is a little confusing. It just unlocks my Unity Tileset Collection as a free gift if you already purchased ALL of my tilesets (all the assets listed on the page that told you about the promotion). But if you're using Unity and want all of my tilesets, it's much cheaper to just buy the tileset collection itself.

Sorry, but no. I drew these all on a single layer.

If someone makes an alternate head asset, sure 🤷‍♀️

10/10 no notes 😘

No, sorry. No combat-focused bundles. If you look at any of my assets on itchio, you may see an image link near the top of the page if that asset is found in a bundle.

Hi there 👋 

The Farmer Sprite System and Character Base are two different assets, as explained at the top of this page. The numbers *before* the filename are only used internally (by me), you can ignore them. All downloadable files are always the most up-to-date version.

Nope. Just the color palette you see in the preview images.

Technically, yes, but they are not specifically formatted for it. That means you won't be able to paint on autotile terrain like walls and floors. You'll need to place each tile individually.

Also, the tiles are 16x16 pixels on 512x512 sheets. So depending on the limitations of your version of RM, you may need to find a plugin or cut and paste tiles into a smaller sheet. You should do some research into using custom tilesets before picking this up.

That's awesome! Nice job 👏

All my tilesets use 16x16 tiles.

Yeah, you want this one 👍

"16-bit" is a reference to the art style.

yes, that's fine 👍 but it's a good idea to look at the license, just in case:

https://selieltheshaper.weebly.com/user-license.html

Yes, the Classic Mana Seed Bundle will unlock all downloads for the Character Base ☺️

Hi, thanks 🙏🏽 

I do sometimes have options for limited non-exclusive commissions. you can find a link on this page.

we'll look into it for the next update, thanks!

Hi there 👋 

The only thing that comes to mind is one of my older tilesets that has some ruined tile variation:

Hi, thanks!

1) You can credit me as Seliel the Shaper, but it's not required. 

2) If you're creating a game engine that other people will use to make a game, you can't include any of my art. They will need to acquire it here from my page. Thanks for understanding 🙏🏽

There's a link to it on the product page: https://selieltheshaper.weebly.com/user-license.html

I plan to add more eventually, but right now the only other monster with a portrait is the mimic: https://seliel-the-shaper.itch.io/malevolent-mimic

There's more than that, and I can't put everything here in the comments. Send me an email and I will reply with the full text.

Does it say "you own this asset pack" with a download link at the top of the page? 

maybe try the "i already paid for this" link if it's not there? 

The license link seems to work fine for me 🤷‍♀️

Thank you for understanding 🙏🏽

No, please do not include my art in this project.
