Hello Itch, 

I make pixel art illustrations and I was wondering what asset packs do you look for and what do you look for in these asset packs. 

What is are some green flags or formats you appreciate. 

Thank you

Edit: I have just realised that I have posted this in Tabletop gaming category, which I apologise. I will keep this discussion here anyway but will post on the relevant category.

Since I love platformers (metroidvanias and run n guns mostly), I'm looking for platformer asset packs.

However, in order to create a good game, I need complete sets which is compatible with each other. I mean, background stuffs must look good with sprites placed near the former.

Also, I don't like having limited characters like only one or two enemies in the pack. I'd end up editing them to create more of them. It would be nice if enemy sprites can be mixed and matched to create different combinations. Each combo could become a unique enemy with its own moveset.
