A downloadable asset pack

Buy Now$5.99 USD or more

You ever imprint on a 20+ year old gameboy game REALLY hard? Me too, stranger. Me too.


Base Character Pack

$5.99 gets you:

  • 4 player characters designed for action-adventure, each with a pool of shared animations and a couple of their own
  • 28 NPCs with 4-directional walkframes
  • 4 animals (dog, cat, chicken, bluebird).
  • 1 portrait each for the NPCs and animals
  • Full portrait expression sets for each player character


DX Character Pack

$11.99 gets you:

  • Everything from the base character pack (you don't have to download both)
  • 2 more NPCs from the $5.99 set are now full player characters
  • Every NPC gets its own set of bonus animations--about 9.7 extra unique frames per character on average, not counting rotations
  • 8 more animals, for 12 animals total*
  • Every single human gets a full portrait set.
  • No, really, I'm underselling this hard. There are 557 frames of portraits across those 32 characters, and that's not a number I'm fluffing up with recolors or anything.

*Fox, mouse, owl, cockatoo, turtle, bonus dog, bunny, horse, on top of the first four.

Player Sheets

All 6 player characters get:

  • Walk
  • Slash
  • Walking with a charged weapon
  • Swim
  • Push
  • Pull
  • Carry
  • Jump
  • Pointing icon (), 8x8 map icon
  • Falling
  • Squish
  • Defeated
  • Sitting
  • In bed
  • Playing an instrument (but which instrument differs)

They also get some extra stuff that's different for each!

Incredible work, godsent for my project! If only you'd made this sooner you'd have saved me a bunch of trouble. :P

I accidentally bought it twice too because I didn't notice the DX version and itch doesn't let you pay the difference to get the extra stuff. I think. Anyway the point is: still worth it. :D

Hope to see more from you in the future!

Posting again as I was curious if you would be open to doing a bit of commission work? I can't find a public email to ask privately. If you're interested please reply and we'll find a way to contact. :)

Hi! I'm interested. You can reach me on Discord, same name as here.

This was an instant buy for myself. Your artwork is amazing, and I hope to one day create a game using them. :)

All of these portraits have 10+, and some even have 20+ variants. Finding complete player sheets that are compatible not just with RPG games, but top-down Zelda-style action games are rare and these are extremely well-done and faithful to GBC styles and limitations. Excellent pack!
