Deck out your heroines with new dresses, eyes, horns, and hairdos with the Another World Heroine Generator 6 for MZ pack! Gee-kun-soft continues their fantasy generator part series with 40 more MZ-style pieces to give your characters a makeover. 5 Beast Ears, 20 Clothing, 5 Eyes, 5 Front Hair, and 5 Rear Hair generator parts are ready to turn your generic female NPCs into vibrant and exciting characters! Dress your heroines in armored outfits when they’re exploring dungeons and lightweight dresses when they’re visiting towns, and help them keep their hair out of their faces with ponytail and bun hairstyles. And give your heroine’s cheerful childhood friend wide, friendly eyes and cute braids tied into loops while she smashes through monsters.
Want to give your villains a new look? Then grab this pack’s 5 horns to add a monstrous detail to them, with sharp angled ones and curving sheep’s horns so you can pick the ones that perfectly fit your villainess. Give your healer wearing a pink scrub dress some small devil horns to hint to your players that she may not be fully on their side, and give all of the dungeon bosses matching horns so that it’s obvious that they’re all working together. If you’ve been wanting to fill a hospital with unique nurses or need some more demonic lady knights to join your party, pick up the Another World Heroine Generator 6 for MZ pack!
Create a quartet of castles that hide powerful secrets in their gooey walls with the KR Legendary Palaces - Slime Tileset! Kokoro Reflections is giving our favorite starter enemy the attention they deserve with an MV/MZ-sized tileset ready to turn a boring dungeon into a slime’s paradise. A1, A2, A4, and A5 tiles come in red, yellow, green, and blue so that you can build bright rocky halls that lead to smooth rooms with puddles of goopy slime and pits that lead deeper into the dungeon. Slow your heroes down with adorable mini-slimes that coat the floor, and mark important paths with decorative tiles carved into hardened goo. Pillars, statues, and round windows fill this pack’s B sheets, which come in each of the 4 colors as well as versions with and without slime faces on the statues so you have 8 B sheets to choose from! Have your heroes explore blue hallways with ramps that lead to upper levels and surprise them with blank slime statues that come to life with grinning faces before a battle starts, or use the faceless versions to mark less important areas.
This pack also includes character sprites for fires, treasure chests, and sparkles that match the tiles’ red, yellow, green, and blue themes so you can keep a consistent color for the dungeon, or try using green or yellow sparkles in a blue room to make sure it catches your players’ eyes! Pick up the KR Legendary Palaces - Slime Tileset and remind your players that slimes are more dangerous than they appear!
New DLC: KR Spirit of England Tileset, Summerwind Saga - Fortress & Dungeon
Two new tilesets are here to bring new environments to your game! Kokoro Reflection's Spirit of England Tileset will transport you directly to London, while ELV Games' Summerwind Saga - Fortress & Dungeon expands the Summerwind Saga style with fantastic new options!
Build a bustling city filled with stone shops and double-decker buses with the KR - Spirit of England Tileset! Kokoro Reflections is back with another tileset inspired by historical architecture, this time focusing on busy streets and shops you could find in cities like London. A1, A2, A3, A4, and A5 tiles can create all the exterior and interior maps your city could need, and 5 B sheets are filled with the little details to really bring your cities to life. Create city blocks where dark asphalt streets mark important areas and smaller cobblestone roads offer paths to hidden treasures and side quests, and keep a consistent look to every storefront with white stone walls and black shingle roofs over floor-to-ceiling windows that show off the shop’s goods. Set your players up with a cozy hotel room with wooden furniture and small beds to act as their base of operations during their stay in the city, or let your heroes live in their own home that’s located over a local pub filled with green booths and pints of beer. Let your players go shopping for fresh fruits and new casual outfits in the shopping district, and give them the option to start a new side quest by having red phone booths scattered around the city streets.
This pack also includes character sprites for fireplaces, tall wooden doors left brown or painted white, and a bright red double-decker bus that can travel along all the city roads! Use the bus to add some extra movement to your maps, or use it as your game’s fast travel system so your players can quickly move between the districts. Pick up the KR - Spirit of England Tileset and build cities filled with towering stone buildings and secrets hidden in rich wooden rooms!
Create dungeons to challenge your players with the Summerwind Saga - Fortress & Dungeon pack! ELV Games continues their Summerwind Saga series with stone walls and decorations to help you make interior and exterior maps that you can fill with treasures, traps, and monsters! A2 and B sheet ground tiles offer up grass options for the four seasons so you can have time pass while your heroes are adventuring, and 2 A5 and 4 B exterior sheets and 1 A5 and 4 B interior sheets are ready to help you create stone fortresses that contain underground dungeons. Build a small fort surrounded by thick stone walls where guards and soldiers can offer healing and skill training to your heroes, and use its tall watchtower to spot new areas to explore. Or create an abandoned fortress deep in the forest with its windows and entryway blocked to try to keep people out and use it as a high-level dungeon for your heroes to challenge when they feel like they’re ready. Let your heroes explore cold stone hallways and rooms with broken wooden furniture and crates that were flooded after monsters overran the dungeon, and reward your players who solve the dungeon’s puzzles with treasure chests and stairs that lead to more dangerous levels.
This pack also includes character sprites for torches to light up fortress walls and doorways for double doors, lifting gates, and a portcullis made of spears to keep your heroes from reaching certain areas before they're ready. If you’ve been building a Summerwind Saga world and have been waiting for tiles to create manmade dungeons for your players to explore, pick up the Summerwind Saga - Fortress & Dungeon pack!
New DLC: Heroine Character Generator 10 for MZ, Pixel Battlers Monster Pack 2
New heroines from Gee-kun-soft! New pixel enemies from ELV Games!
Dress your heroines for success with the Heroine Character Generator 10 for MZ pack! Gee-kun-soft is back with another set of MZ-style generator parts to give your party members and NPCs recognizable appearances, offering up military-inspired uniforms, quirky cloth armor, and fantasy outfits that you can top with accessories and shining eyes.

Designed to work easily with this pack’s shaded faces, each part can be mixed and matched to perfectly fit your game’s world! Give a party member pointy elf ears and sparkling eyes while she’s dressed in a crisp white uniform to add some fun fantasy to your sci-fi game, or reveal a secret about your medieval-inspired world with some hi-tech space suits and helmets that your heroines can wear into battle after exploring an ancient temple. Let a sorceress have a cute cat-like familiar float next to her who can offer new spells for a price, and have your favorite female party member start wearing an adorable feather or stylized skull hairpin after the main character takes her on a date.
This pack also includes body bases that work well with the lightweight outfits as well as gradients with some additional colors so you can make your heroines stand out with unique outfit and eye colors. Pick up Heroine Character Generator 10 for MZ and prepare your heroines for dangerous space battles, strategic military operations, and parties where flamboyant outfits are required!
Battle bulls, bats, behemoths, and all-around baddies with the Pixel Battlers Monsters Pack 2! ELV Games is back with another set of front view pixel art battlers, sized for Ace and MV/MZ, for your heroes to face in combat! 36 different monsters are ready to turn any map into a creature-filled dungeon. Battle fish and slithering dragons on beaches, snakes and goblins in forests, bats and demons in caves, and more with this pack! Keep your players on their toes with tons of different enemies they could fight at any moment and keep them thinking with upgraded troops that can’t be defeated by mashing attack. Teach your players the basics with small horned demons and charging bulls early in the game, and then challenge them with evolved versions where the demons have magical swords and shields and the bulls are replaced with axe-wielding minotaurs! Or let your players decide if they want to turn a normal fight into a deadly boss battle with increased rewards by having three-eyed mob monsters turn into six-eyed demons and cute little wildcats become muscular werecats if the battle lasts longer than 5 turns.
Each monster also comes in 4 different colors, bringing the pack total to 144 battlers! Fight a horde of green, blue, yellow, and red goblins who each have their own elemental strengths and weaknesses, or switch between the black, brown, purple, and red minotaurs so that battles don’t feel exactly the same even when your players are grinding to finish a challenging collection side quest. If your game has been needing some more creatures and critters to keep battles interesting or if you want to add upgradable enemies to your ever-evolving dungeons, check out the Pixel Battlers Monsters Pack 2!
RPG Maker MZ has been updated to v1.9.0
RPG Maker MZ has been updated to version 1.9.0. The update contents are as follows:
Added Character Generator assets in dlc/BasicResources/generator folder. Import the assets following the steps written in a text file which exists in the same folder.
Face and icon images can now be selected from multiple size standards, supporting asset standards from the previous series.
In the database [System 2] - [Editor Settings] - [Message Width], you can now change the position of the guideline for a new line break displayed in the "Show Text" event command. It is specified by the number of characters. It supports both cases with and without a face image.
You can now exclude specific files during deployment. You can exclude files/folders that match the extensions specified in "Exclude extensions" and the names specified in "Exclude files/folders" (include the extension for files) to export the game folder.
In the database [System 2] - [Advanced Settings] - [Pictures Upper Limit], you can now change the maximum number of pictures. You can set up to 500.
When you select "Save as Image" by right-clicking on the map, you can now set four levels of reduction scale. In addition, it is now possible to export an image at the same magnification even for large maps of 64x64 or more.
The amount of Parameter Changes for weapons/armors can now be set up to -9999 to 9999 for Max HP and Max MP, and -999 to 999 for other parameters.
There is no longer a coordinate limit when placing enemies in "Troops". If you place it off-screen and cannot click it, use "Align" to reset it.
In all text boxes where control characters can be used, you can now select "Insert Control Character", "Insert Color Number" and "Insert Icon Number" when you right-click.
When you specify a Switch/Variable in "Event Searcher", the search results now include events where they are used in the Conditions.
In "Plugin Manager", the scroll position when it was last opened is now restored.
In the database [System 2] - [Editor Settings] - [JSON Format Level], you can now select the formatting level of the JSON files output by MZ from three levels. Put 0 for no formatting. Put 1 for the minimum length that creates a new line at every data unit (same as before version 1.8.1). Put 2 for the maximum length that creates a new line at every comma or bracket.
You can now select maps on a map selector dialog by specifying "map" or "location" for the annotation "@type" of the plugin parameter. If you specify "map" for @type, the ID of the selected map will be set as its value. If you specify "location", you can select a map and the coordinates on the map and an object (string) containing the map ID, X coordinate and Y coordinate will be set as its value. ex) {"mapId":"1","x":"0","y":"0"}
When "file" is specified in the annotation "@type" of the plugin parameter, you can now specify the "movies" folder as the value of "@dir".
Fixed an issue that the scroll bar could not be moved when using a touch screen (such as an LCD tablet) on Mac.
Fixed an issue that the scroll bar movement status was stored when another event editor was opened with the scroll bar moved horizontally in the event editor.
Fixed an issue that when there was a map that existed on the map tree but its data file did not exist and you deploy with "Exclude Unused Fils" enabled, the actually used assets were unintentionally deleted.
Fixed an issue that when "%1" was entered in the message of a newly created Skills/States and restarted MZ, an extra "%2" was inserted.
Climb steep cliffs and search for herbs and mushrooms under lush canopies with the Summerwind Saga - Forests & Mountains pack! ELV Games continues their Summerwind Saga series with a variety of trees and rocky cliff faces to add all new areas for your heroes to explore and your farmers to use as new spots to farm! A2 ground tiles are ready to be covered with 29 B sheets filled with grass edges to make smooth transitions, trees and plants to fill an area with nature, and cliffs that can be mixed and matched to create towering mountains.
Create forests where the trees have different sized canopies and twisting trunks in two different colors so that it doesn’t feel like each grove is a copy, and scatter small red-capped mushrooms in the shadows that your heroes can collect to cook or craft with! Use enormous fallen logs as magical portals between areas and keep your new heroes safe by setting up fences and signs so they don’t end up fighting monsters way beyond their level. Let your heroes climb grass-covered hills to find rare trees or climb even higher until dirt and stone is all you can find. Show that time is passing in your game world with spring, summer, fall, and winter versions of the forest and tree tiles, and turn a safe mountain pass into a frigid challenge with the snow-covered winter version. Give each season their own collectables and monsters, or let the changing seasons subtly prompt your players into action to stop the final boss before it’s too late!
Each tileset sheet comes in 2 sizes, 32x32px for Ace and 48x48px for MV/MZ, so you can use it in your favorite engine! If you’ve been wanting to expand your farming game with some more locations to forage in or need some variations to show different seasons as time passes in your game, check out the Summerwind Saga - Forests & Mountains pack!
Build a cozy town for your heroes to call home with the Summerwind Saga - Village pack! ELV Games is here with a set of tiles ready to create villages for your heroes to live in and visit. This pack’s A2 ground tiles and 29 B sheets can make a bunch of buildings that you can decorate to match your vision! Choose between 1-tile and 2-tile tall walls and top them with gabled roofs covered in blue, red, or black shingles so you can give each town a consistent look or mark important buildings with a roof that stands out compared to the normal houses. Decorate each house with chimneys and round, arched, or square windows, and don’t forget to give the gardeners flowers on their windowsills! Place cobblestone paths between businesses so it’s easy to get to them and mark each with a wooden sign above their door so travelers know which is the item shop and which is an inn with a quick glance. And make the whole village feel more lived-in with boxes piled high against walls, and wooden swings and teeter-totters for the kids of the village to play with while their parents are busy with work.
Normal and snow-covered versions of each house tile makes it simple to show changing seasons with the buildings themselves, or make sure that a village hidden deep in the snowy mountains is properly coated with fluffy snow. Each tileset sheet also comes in 32x32px and 48x48px-sized versions, so you can easily use them in Ace, MV/MZ, or your favorite engine! Pick up the Summerwind Saga - Village pack and give your heroes a nice place to return to after hours of adventuring and foraging!

Kokoro Reflections is here with a new cave tileset for MV and MZ that focuses on all that sparkles! Create caves filled with towering crystals, tunnels where gemstones are mined, and dungeons overflowing with crystalized plants and pathways. A1, A2, A4, and 2 B sheets are ready to build underground waterways and dirt paths that give way to crystal floors and walls. Fill caverns with jutting bunches of crystals and toppled columns, and add an extra touch of magic with bushes, flowers, and mushrooms that were formed from the cave’s gems. Let your heroes visit different mines along their adventure by using the 5 different versions of the tiles: red ruby, green emerald, yellow topaz, blue sapphire, and purple amethyst! Use the different colors to let your players know how dangerous each dungeon is, or mix and match to make rainbow-themed caves.
This pack also includes 5 character sprites for treasure chests, levers, and canoes to add interesting puzzles and rewards to your caves! Force your heroes to use wall-mounted switches and levers sticking out of the floor to shift mining cart routes or unlock passage, and let your heroes pick up helpful supplies from wooden treasure chests. Need to make a quick exit after being a dungeon boss? Set up a canoe in the cave’s river to easily escape! Pick up the KR Crystal Cavern Tileset and build multiple caves for your heroes to explore and gather unique crystals from each!
Give your skill instructors and commanding officers an adorable new look with the RPG Character Pack 16! Gee-kun-soft is back with another new set of 16 MZ-style characters to add to your games, this time focusing on women who could be friends or foes. Have your heroes join a company with 5 uniform-wearing coworkers and a youthful commanding officer who took on the white leadership jacket after the previous commander disappeared. Team up with a skilled blonde elf and an excitable bunny girl to explore dungeons and battle skilled swordswomen bursting with power! Or take on the cloven-foot Krampus in a wintery battlefield and dodge katana slashes when facing off against a foreign warrior decked out in ruffles and a cherry blossom-patterned jacket, and see if you can talk them into joining your party.
Each character comes with walking and downed sprites, 13 front view enemy images with a variety of outfit colors, facesets and bust images with 8 different emotions, and SV battlers, so you can easily turn any of them into a new party member or the heroine of the whole story! Let your players talk the twin-tailed mage into joining their team, or surprise them with the sudden reveal that the uniformed officer they had been getting side quests from was really working with the dark lord the whole time.
This pack also includes high resolution images of each character so you can resize them to perfectly fit your game’s screen size, or show them head-to-toe when your players first meet them. If you’ve been wanting to upgrade your NPCs or add new party members who are all dressed to impress, check out the RPG Character Pack 16!

Give your shopping district some memorable NPCs with a cool armored halfling in sunglasses offering up powerful guns for a fair price and a grinning goblin welder ready to upgrade your hero’s armor if you bring him the right supplies. Accept side quests to help out the city from a hulking mechanized guard, or learn secrets of magic from figures wearing cloaks that don’t quite hide their curved horns. For the more adventurous of heroes, have them try to talk to the enormous green-armored alien Swarm Queen and her attack dogs before the battle begins to learn where their hive is, and duel a knight wielding weapons made of magic with words first to see if your heroes can avoid a challenging fight!
Each image is in a high resolution so you can easily resize it to perfectly fix your screen size, or shrink down the monsters for comedic effect! Reveal that the Terra Terror wyrm that’s been terrorizing a town is actually only a foot tall, or shrink your heroes down to explore new areas and show their smaller size by having all the NPC pictures be huge. If your cities have been needing new shopkeepers and your plotlines have been lacking some deadly armored foes, pick up the Galefire Characters - NPC Monster Pack 2!
Visit your hero’s bloodiest nightmares with the KR Legendary Palace - Wendigo Tileset! Kokoro Reflections continues their Legendary Palace series with a set of tiles stained crimson where not only do the walls have eyes, but they’re watching you! A1, A2, A4, A5, and B tiles are ready to coat your maps with different shades of red to create a truly terrible dungeon filled with ponds of blood and shattered bones. Start your heroes in a room with textured brown walls and floor that could be mistaken for dirt, though the bruised purple stains on the floor and streams of blood leaking from next to the doorway suggests something far darker. As they delve deeper and deeper into the monstrous lair replace the floors with clumped fat that squelches when stepped on and fibrous red muscle walls where veins curve together to form decorations and statues. Reward your players for facing the blood splattered rooms instead of racing for the exit with a scarlet treasure chest character sprite, and add a bit of unsettling movement to the halls with a drop of blood sprite that can fall from the ceiling into a bloody puddle.
This pack also includes sample maps for MV and MZ, so you can see each tile’s passability and gain inspiration for how to make each map as horrific as possible. Pick up the KR Legendary Palace - Wendigo Tileset and scare your heroes and players alike with bloody hallways and deadly throne rooms!
