Looking for some retro sounds for your game? How about some creepy or Traditional Chinese spaces? Have you ever wanted to further customize your game's collision in a convenient to use GUI? Look no further than this week's exciting releases!
Fill your retro game with fitting chiptune tracks with the 8bit hi-tempo BGM pack! Hefka Games is here with 16 BGM tracks made with the same sound chip as the NES and Famicom, perfect for any project that takes inspiration from the games of that age. Keep your player’s head nodding along to the music as they face off against deadly foes, explore deep dungeons, and celebrate victories!
Help your players focus during battle with energetic tracks such as the quick beeps and boops of ‘You Have to Fight’ and the heavier beats and drum kicks of ‘Para-Bellum’. And make sure your boss battles stand out from the normal fights with their own unique tracks, like the racing and constantly shifting style of ‘Battle for Wonderland’ or the oppressive hits of ‘Mighty Foe’. Celebrate victories with the excited jingles in ‘Another Victory’ and ‘Boss Vanquished’, and explore crumbling caverns while the speedy ‘Adrenaline Rush’ plays in the background to prompt your players to keep going before they end up falling to their doom. Want even more details about each track, including details other composers may enjoy like the scales used for certain tracks? Then make sure to check out the include ‘Tracklist and Description’ file where Hefka shares some of their thoughts on each track and where they’d use them in a game.
This pack also comes with a chipper ‘mission cleared’ ME that you could use at the end of battles or whenever your heroes finish off a quest. Each track comes in both Ogg and M4a file formats so that you can easily use them in MV and MZ, or use them in your favorite RPG Maker engine. If you’ve been needing more options for NES-style music or just want to add some more toe-tapping tunes to your game, check out the 8bit hi-tempo BGM pack!

Create a pixel art Victorian town for your detectives to explore and your citizens to try to survive with the Haunted Residences Assets pack! ESQUADRA,inc. has crafted a set of tiles sized for MV/MZ ready to turn empty maps into streets lined with townhouses, homes with connected turrets, and large ornate mansions. Not only that, but ruined interior tiles make it easy to fill an abandoned house with ruined and ransacked furniture.
Visit stone townhouses topped with cute blue or pink roofs, or keep your game’s darker themes with dark green and crimson roof tiles and foundations. Create homes with painted wood walls and shingle roofs that come in multiple colors that dot the landscape until your players reach the main location of the game: a large brick mansion filled with rooms to explore. Fill the houses with dirty bookshelves, torn beds, knocked over dressers, and cooking pots with concerning stains in them for your players to search and find new clues to the game’s mystery. Each house exterior comes in two versions, a clean option and destroyed option, so you can mix and match to make each house look unique or show just how long certain places have been left unoccupied.
This pack also includes character sprites and faces for two detectives, each dressed in a long brown trench coat and matching brimmed hat, who are ready to wander into any dangerous house in search of the truth. And to keep the whole game’s look cohesive, there is also a window screen that matches the desaturated browns of the world. Create a horror game based in a creepy abandoned mansion or a murder mystery where your players play a tired, trench coat-wearing detective with the Haunted Residences Assets pack!

Change your game’s boxy movement into something smooth with collision detection with the Rosedale Collision Altering Plugin! Rosedale Studios (or as you may know them on the RPG Maker forums, Chaucer) bursts onto the store scene with this incredible plugin pack that gives you all new ways to set up your maps’ collisions. No longer are your heroes contained on a single 48x48 pixel square, now they’ll be able to get as close to that cliff edge or dangerous glowing lava as they want! Have them zigzag between clumps of grass, circle the statue in the town square, and slip on icy floors into towering crystals with this plugin!
Use the included Collision Altering GUI to create unique geometric shapes out of lines and points for each tile that needs its own special shape and size, giving you control over exactly how your players can move around the map. Have squares to block heroes from walking onto graves, triangles to cut around behind treetops, and even stars for magical pentagrams carved into the ground! This pack includes how to use and tool instructions files along with sample projects for both MV and MZ, so even if you’re not super savvy when it comes to plugins you’ll be able to learn and use this plugin! So if you’ve been searching for a good way to change how tile collisions work in your game, pick up the Rosedale Collision Altering Plugin!

Build a lively and vivid city with the Traditional Chinese Tilesets pack! 午藍Wulan is back with another pixelated MV/MZ-sized tileset pack, this time focusing on details you could find in Chinese architecture and traditional homes. Build a colorful world full of bright tile roofs and detailed patterns, where NPCs spend their time playing mahjong at a table, teahouses are ready for visitors at any time with painted screens separating areas, and blacksmiths create ornate blades for your heroes to buy.
Both interior and exterior tiles are included in this pack’s A1, A5, and 4 B sheets so you can let your heroes walk past towering pagodas and manmade ponds filled with water lilies, wander between stone statues and hanging red lanterns, and find their way to the round open entrances or sliding doors of the city’s buildings. Have your heroes buy delicious meals from stands in a busy market or relax inside on a couch near a decorative pond before heading off on their next adventure. Decorate rooms with flower pots and taxidermy cranes, or add a tiger skin rug to the floor of a rich NPC’s to show his opulence. This pack even includes bloody footprints and blood puddles so you can add a surprise murder mystery side quest to your game!
This pack also includes a large red and gold lion costume so you can have a lion dance during a cutscene. If your game takes place in China or you want to add some new details to your game’s world, check out Traditional Chinese Tilesets!
