Avy's MZ Stuff

Dammit. I am still not at home for quite a while, and I forgot to mirror the whole calendar resources, so... a little twist, that was not planned for today, but it should suit you anyways.
I personally am not a huge fan of the teeny tiny doors the RTP has, and so one of the first things I made for this calendar was a makeover for a lot of the MZ Sci-Fi-Doors which is now released on day 13:


For your convenience they come in "opening to light", "opening to dark" and "no background", so you can use them however and whereever you like.
Tomorrow I'll be back home, I swar xD

I always thought that the tiny default doors look weird, even for the usual sprites. So, thank you for that!

So I am finally back at home and can post at midnight again and marked the swapped days in my list (day 23 was supposed to be the doors, now it has the content of day 13 and vece versa^^).
Phew, seems like I am still gonna be very busy in the next day, if you see me active here you know I am procastrinating and should do other stuff, lol.

But that should not bother us here, let us see what day 14 has for you!
First, we have something that was on my "wanna do that" for quite some time, a bust for the MZ medusa battler:

I think of the MZ battlers she is one of my favourites, with that color sheme and the snakes and everything... and pssst, I heard @hiddenone might have prepared something matching as well?

And of course, there is no medusa without a yard of victims, in this case, I have one that comes with a lot of variations:


The base statue without anything was actually drawn completly from scratch, for the variations I was so free to heavily edit default stuff.
So is she a goddess who waits for your heroes to add a blood sacrifice to her bowl?
Just a very beautiful fire bowl?
Someone who was turned to stone centuries ago?
With all those options you can basically pick whatever you like!
(I am very proud how close I am came to the RTP style to be honest :3)

Interactive/animated statues are always a favourite of mine. Thanks! ^_^

You know, I've always loved that glowing red orb you added to the default female statue. I'm feeling so disloyal and fickle now, because I love even more these statues. One for holy water, one for a blood sacrifice, and you can never have enough fire. It's the color variations, though, that are grabbing my heart. Beautiful.

Definitely going to use these statues in a puzzle. Especially like the mossy one, that will be perfect for ancient ruins.

Yeah, those statues are perfect for puzzles and I think you nailed the rtp style.

Maybe a dragon character needs to light up some statues for a puzzle. :)

These look amazing as always!

Maybe you have been there, I have been there for sure and I had not really that many Projects so far: at some point it might be useful to have someone in your game in prison, maybe your heroes, maybe their enemy they need to question, maybe someone they need to free for a quest... long story short, every story in a fantasy world is very likely to have a prison at some point.
And the default tiles are a bit, uh, lacking I'd say?
I used the bits we have on the tilesets and the teeny tiny doors from the charsets and turned them into 4 variations of prisons, so you can map them any way you like!
And it does not stop there, Day 15 also comes with neat matching doors that open in any direction, if you play the animation backwards they also work sideways AND with a key animation in case you want to use that... or you play an on map animation and use the broken bars to have the people blow them up!
Who will you lock up in these?

Yes we need a place to lock away all this cool stuff you're making until we get a chance to use it LOL

Doors that work sideviews and frontviews? Sorcery! :LZSgrin:
But honestly very nice stuff for a prison or a dungeon.

MUCH improved over the rtp. Thank you Avery!! :)

We are already 2/3rd through everything and I think today is a good day to become emotional. Like, really emotional. Well... maybe not us, but rather the default king, but that works anyways, I'd say!
But before that, I have one of the resources that I was a little insecure about wheather you would like or even need that, but I made my very first MZ generator parts that are now released on day 16!

The general goal was something a little less anime and maybe even a bit more... grown up, but still cute and not too far off so you can mix it with default parts. You can see how everything I made works together in this example, and here are all the parts I have for you:










And, as promised, here is the emperor, ready to talk to your heroes. Let him be honest about what he thinks of your heroes with his facial expressions!

The eyes are fantastic and a godsend. (I'm the one person on this board who doesn’t care for anime haha)

The MZ generator parts are really cute! I especially like the nose.
Maybe one day you do the same for the male version?

On Day 17, we kinda stick with the theme emotions first, but there is more!
The first batch is a set of icons that was made actually to express states in a different way - that is what you can see in the middle row. I then realized that they also make nice emotion icons which could be handy if you have a diary system, an relation system or just want to have them in any place!
The middle row is mainly to show certain states and we have icons for "evil" and "good" as well!


The next set is very mixed, I had considered making more icon days, but now it is one large mixed bag :3
Who can tell me where those two swords are from? ;3
And then we have those stars, which can be used to be laid over items to show their rarity or level:

they come in different positions, so you can pick what you like!
The last row are some random cards I made long time ago and forgot to release, so here you go! :D
And here is the sheet:


And last but not least, one wish for the calendar was some beach clutter tiles, where I tried my hand on from scratch stuff again :3

Oh gosh, thank you so much @Avery! Beach thingies was my request, so happy that you've made them!! And the pot/pan/daikon icons, OMG OMG OMG. LOVE ALL.

I love the icon with the open bag and the cooking utensils. How about a wooden spoon?

Today on day 18 we have something that was inspired by hiddeonone and her amazing Blog-Tutorials that feature the infamous Sir Oinkers!
We all love him and the default pig that is his sprite, and so I thought he could use some more poses and expressions!
I thought I could give him a down pose as well, and ended up making three instead xD Plus, I realized that with some tweaking, we can have him roll around in the mud with a stepping animation!
So here you go, time to add some more Sir Oinkers (or random pigs) to your game!



On a scale of 1-8, which Sir Oinkers are you today?
