Announcement - ReStaff March 2019 Release!

Archeia · 2019-03-29T07:37:48+0900

Calm was the even, clear was the sky, the new budding flowers did spring. Southward, the summer isle, Bamboos spire the grove. We will seek the quiet hill, With blue-bells blowing near, The fields breathe sweet, flowers kiss our feet, Young lovers meet, old wives a-sunning sit, Spring, the sweet spring! We don't allow the resources to be redistributed anywhere else. If you want to share it, please direct them here instead! Thank you for your patronage. We will release each resources from individual artists for a few straight days. Look forward for all the amazing resources everyone has in store! By the end of the event, we'll compile all resources into a master zip file. WIthout further ado, let's begin with @Avery's contribution! She provides us with something new with a huge tileset, genies and monster in a box. Coming in at 2nd, @hiddenone brings us some plants, gnomes and leprechauns! For our third update, we can't leave all these gnomes and leprechauns homeless! Thankfully, @The Mighty Palm provided them with some housing! For our fourth update, @Personigo de la Ĉefo is back with more resources! If you are looking for more skill icons and some cool rogue-like characters, He's got you covered! For our fifth update, @J0pac provides us with beautiful Town templates for RPG Maker MV! And finally, our last update comes to a close by amazing resources contributed by @whtdragon! We always wanted more nobles, fairies, weapons and icons so she definitely brought a lot to the table! And of course, @hiddenone and @whtdragon is back once again with more generator parts! Thanks for visiting! In the meantime, why won't you tell our contributors what you liked, what you wish for more and some feedback that we can improve on? Download

I would like to thank all the ReStaffs here for their dedication and hard work on these lovely free resources! They're truly amazing! I really love everyone of these and the people who spend their time in their busy lives making these and giving them for free. I'm looking forward to more of these in the future! Thank you very much ReStaffs for all your hard work! I truly appreciate it. ♥♥♥

Happy Birthday ReStaff!

Updated once again! I think the preview for @J0pac 's set doesn't do much justice for it so here's some bigger sized previews that we hope you enjoy!

There's a ton of awesome stuff guys, I'm so impressed with what y'all have shared! :kaoluv:

@The Mighty Palm My little leprechauns thank you for giving them homes! Otherwise they'd be forced to live at the ends of rainbows.

@Personigo de la Ĉefo The male rogue's nose and mustache give him so much personality, great job! Your icons are cool too, I think my favorite ones are the 'hundred golden punch' and 'bone barrage', they're fun and give me a lot of ideas for possible skills to match the icons. If you're thinking about more icons, may I suggest adding options for the icon outlines? The simple silver outline for most works well, but it could be nice to have a few levels for the skills that are shown with evolving outlines.

@J0pac Maps, now that's an awesome idea! While I don't think any of these will fit my current game, I do love how you did connecting roofs that you can walk under in Town 1 and the close-quarter buildings of Town 4. Personally I'm not sure that the roofs connecting to the upper ground and having snowy grass on them in Town 3 makes a lot of sense, but the idea is definitely interesting (and now I'm thinking of reasons why they'd be built like that, perhaps they've dug into the cliffside and made rooms in it?).

Oh, RTP town templates? Now I’ll download that just to see if I can steal any good ideas. Working in only RTP is hard and you need all the tricks up your sleeve that you can get!

Glad you liked 'em :) I plan to add more icons for next restaff, mainly item and equipment ones, but I will think on the different outline colors too.

From cute characters, fantastic mini-houses, surprise slime boxes, and colorful icons to the premade maps. ReStaff outdid themselves again!

Now that I've checked out the maps, great stuff. I got some good RTP inspiration from it (and I'm currently mapping a lot with the MV RTP so it's timely).

I found some stuff like passability issues and missing cliff corners etc in a few places (just a few), and in case someone is going to use the maps just make sure to look them over and fix those small nuisances. This is not criticism to the mapper, the maps are top notch and with some polish they could fit in a commercial game even (if you're using RTP). But putting the style of the RTP aside, these maps all look and feel very interesting without being too cramped (they're a little cramped but that's fine in my book).

Have @hiddenone and @whtdragon considered making generator DLC? Always such amazing quality.

Hey guys, while we love hearing that you liked the release it's really more helpful if you mention what you liked the most and what you think would be cool to have more of. If we know what you want, then it's more likely you'll see more of it in future releases. :rwink:

@MMMm It's an idea we've tossed around, but haven't seriously considered since we both are pretty busy.

@whtdragon I love how those little fairies turned out, and the extra tiny ones are so cute! :kaoluv: The fairy icons are cool too, it means a dev could make a fairy-summoning skill or item... There's a lot of potential there.

@hiddenone

Your facial parts are really helpful. Noses, eyes, eyebrows, mouths. These pieces are invaluable as there's an abundance of clothing available in DLC but not so much for making the characters look alive. Whenever you release these kinds of parts it saves us a lot of time of editing the face sets in photoshop to make them stand out.

You could have a generator DLC or two based entirely on expressions and it would be a best seller.

@hiddenone @whtdragon You don't know how long I waited for a non-DLC fox mask generator part! Many thanks to you both!
