I had to wait for a new battery to come in for my flash cart but I am excited to try out your game, as well as anyone's, and pull out my dmg game boy and my new funny playing fpga. Thanks btw, flattered you felt my work was worth using in your work. :}
Definitely. Great work! This is by far the most extensive character-set I found for GB, anywhere, and all the options allowed me to keep all the characters with a good uniform-vibe, but not seem too repetitive.
I'm not sure. I did base them heavily on actual games. Basically I looked at the games and recreated them, there are some minor tweaks and I did add things that do not exist in the actual games (Like different type eyes). So, with that in mind, I do no care how anyone use them. Sorry I don't really have an answer for your question. :/
I downloaded this on a whim in order to expand my number of useable assets. I did NOT expect 200,000 new assets at my disposal from one free download! Good gods, man! Throwing you a tip the SECOND I have some spare cash! Be sure to check out my game PageTurner to see how I'll be using them!
Thank you for the kind words. :) I often think of the days of using street lights at night to see my Game Boy. Today, it is amazing to to see a great part of my childhood coming back, and I am sure many others feel the same. I hope to add as many NEW Game Boy games to my collection as possible, whether it has my work in it or not. Again, thank you for your kind words. :)
Thanks. I am going to continue to make tweaks over time and add other retro game based sprites to the list. Hoping to help game developing just a little easier for others. :)
It should be 100,000 "player" body types and 100,000 "elderly" body types. Basically better chance of assortment and people not using the exact same sprites.

Hi! Love this tileset. I made this game using a few characters from it: https://davidkonsumer.itch.io/friendstar

I used yours in some of the assets/sprites/npc-*.png files.
This is completely insane
The Game Boy only supports 3 shades per sprite. GB Studio uses the darkest, lightest, and 2nd lightest shades.
I will have to test this and start this project again. Thank you.
Splendid, thought browsing through the sheer amount of sprites is hard work :D
ok there are a lot more than I thought lol. amazing job. One question: which pack has the 4th one down? id like to turn him into a samurai pls.
Thank you! :) The forth one down, with the bun, would be a "Pokeman" style character.
thank you so much! Definitely throwing you some green love when I'm not poor lol
can they be used commercially?

Thanks for explaining :)
this is insane
In the membrane?
Always insane in the membrane.

Very nice. Lots of personality

Cool! I'm looking forward to seeing them 😀
Thx man... im gonna use this for a GB Studio game. Question? Why is the download 146mb? Shudnt it be like under 1mb for a couple png's?
It should be 100,000 "player" body types and 100,000 "elderly" body types. Basically better chance of assortment and people not using the exact same sprites.
Woah 100,000! Oh ok nice!
