Hello,
I just download your sprites, thanks for the quality I really like the design !
I have a question, I try to use it in Tyled software, how do you create your tileset from your sprite folder ? do you recommand a software and a method ?
Thanks in advance !
Hi! I really love your assets and I’m very curious what color palette you use here and in your current project. I’m currently making my own game and I’m very inspired by your style 🙂
Howdy! Thank you. :D I make my own color palettes. It was something I decided to do early on to build the skill of picking colors.
Thank you for the amazing artwork, your character became the main character in my open source game: https://github.com/AgentRateLimit/Mobhold
Eyyy, that looks great. :) Nice work!
Thanks for the amazing assetes! just updated my game using it!
I would love if you all could check it out!

Love the cute and cozy look! Would be great to add a female character.
Thank you! I'm working on my own game, so I don't update often, but I've got a female character designed and planned for the next update. :)
can I use this for my game but the game will be paid (free version)
Commercial games require that you own the premium version. :)
Hey there, I love to work with your assets! As I'm building a game and a tutorial on it, I wanted to ask you, if you are still willing to update the pack? I would love to see Bow an Arrow in in the hands of that little dude and maybe Sword and Shield... What du you think about such an update?
Howdy! Yeah, I will update it in the future. All of my spare time right now is going towards finishing the demo for my own game though. :)
Happy to hear that. :) Is it Zoe that you're working on? looks very promissing.
It is, yeah. :) Thank you!
Next Tutorial with your assetes is online!

I bought the paid version on 06/05/2025, so it’s all good to use in my project, right? I know it says it’s okay—I just wanted to mention that I did buy it
Yeah, you're good. :)
Endeavor, please activate version 2.1.
Done. :)
What is the dimensions for the player Im trying to separate the sprites
48x48 iirc. :)
thx
Thanks for the amazing assetes! just finished my game using it!
I would love if you, and you all could check it out!

I like your work. Keep it up!
Thanks!
Thats an interesting take on the pack good job tho it looks very nice!
Thank you!
Thank you for the great Asset! I'm starting to create a game with it and I'm also making an tutorial for it. Here is the first part:
i dont know why but i just purchased the pack and i cant download it, i cant refund it neither
Itch is the one that handles transactions. You may need to contact their support. :) Seems like they were having issues earlier, unsure if it's related.
yeah its itch you cant download anything srry for bothering <3
Hi, It would be nice if there was roofs for the buildings and different types of walls.
Thanks
Hello,
It would be great to have some extra enemies and building.
Thank you!
hi! the sprites are really cute! can i use them on my game if i leave your credits when i publish it?
Howdy! Thank you. :) Absolutely, they're made for you to use.
Thank you. :)
Can someone please explain this to a beginner:
I bought these sprites today and it is written that this is a 16 x 16 Tile size pack. So I created a 16x16 map and imported it together with the player sprite in my game (I use pygame) . But the Player on that map is as big as a tree. How can I fix that? In the readme it says that the player sprite is 48 x 48...do I have to create the map im 48x48 too to fix the proportions?
Thanks in advance
The player is on a 48x48 grid, but most of that is padding (for me to have some extra room for animations in the future). The player should fit on a 16x16 grid, and the map tiles should be at 16x16. What engine are you using? It sounds like a scaling issue. The resolution of the player's pixels should match the map tiles.
Honestly, this was the one I needed, but please add some more characters not required for the premium version. Thanks for your work!
This looks great, but I hadn't seen it until now because it doesn't have the "16x16" tag that I normally use to filter. You should add it!
Done, thanks. :)
Thank you, Cool sprites! I took some insperation of pixel style
Check them out in my game!

How do you create these assets? Is it some kind of digital art app? Pls say the name.
Aseprite. :)
ok but that is not a free software. Do u know any free software for this purpose?
Asesprite is open source, you can compile the source code yourself and then it is free.
https://github.com/aseprite/aseprite
Ok thank you
PS what do u think of Krita
Not sure if you're still looking but you could try something like pixilart or piskel. I believe they're free and on the web. There's also libresprite which is basically a free aseprite.
I've compiled aseprite from source myself and honestly it's worth just paying if you can spare the money. it's a great pixel art program.
I haven't used krita myself but I hear it's in general a good drawing program. Might be worth a look.
Ok i did download the files but i don't know how i should compile it :( . Can anyone help me out?
download googles new IDE agenic software. Open the folder with the downloaded files you saved on your computer. I would recommend using a drive that doesn’t have your OS or any other important files on it. When you have the folder opened in a new agent window Use Claude Opus or Gemini 3.0’Pro or fast and tell it you want to compile it and get the software running. It shouldn’t have a problem.
there's also pixelorama for specifically pixel art based stuff (tentative) and that's also free :3
thanks :)
Thanks a lot for sharing this art, I used your character for this game

Hi, I am a 5th grade teacher making a simple story-driven game that follows the book The Phantom Booth. I am curious about the possibility of making sprites and/or other assets that would fit the game, and what that might cost if you were able? More so the characters than anything else. Thank you
Hi, I was wondering if I could publish my game with the player sprite. I changed up the hairstyle and clothing. I just used it as a base that i kind of traced over. I attached a file of the character i designed from your base player.
You can, yeah. :) That looks great.
thanks!
Yeah, these sprites are meant for you to use. :) Good luck with your game! Programming can be some of the best fun you'll have.
Hello is there any way possible that you could create some sprites where the slime opens his mouth and shoots out like slime balls, because in my game I am using the slime as my main character for Godot and I want him to be able to do damage to enemies.
I realize that I’m asking you to do me a favor. If it’s fair what would you normally charge for doing this? I understand if you would want me to pay you for this.
That's a neat idea, I'll consider it. I won't take money for it, but I'm a game developer myself and spend most of my spare time working on that, so it could be a while. :)
Thank you for your consideration. Do you think it would be possible for me to create the frames myself?
For sure, it seems like a pretty simple modification. :)
how can i give u credits?
However you like. You're not required to, but if you want then you can just mention me as Game Endeavor. :)
I have a question about the license for the free version. I am a teacher teaching game design to 8th graders. My school has an aggressive web filter that blocks most things game related. So I can't just link the students to this resource page because itch.io is blocked.
If I were to download some of your assets, post them on a webpage on my classroom site, give credit to you, share the license information, and link back to this webpage (even though it will get blocked at my school); would this be violating the "You can not redistribute or resale, even if modified" portion of your license?
Normally it would, but I'll grant an exception for this since it's for education. :)
It would be cool if you could add the following to your license: "Educators working for a publicly funded school may redistribute these assets to their students for non-commercial, educational purposes."
Probably not required since using your assets is likely allowed under Fair Dealings / Fair Use, but most students in public schools will not be able to access your assets through itch.io due to domain blocking for "games", and many teachers will just choose to use CC0 assets instead.
How do I buy the paid version? I bought this and donated what I could at the moment thinking that was how you did it. I dont see any link to get the paid version.
Howdy. :) That's odd. I see the payment, so you should be good. It'll show up on the download page. It should say up top that you paid for the assets, and give a download link. You should see two files, the free one 'mystic_woods_free_2.2.zip' and the one you want 'mystic_woods_2.2.zip'. If not you may need to put in a support ticket with itch.
ok had a dumb moment, didn’t even think of looking in the other folder
Ah, good. Glad to hear you found it. xD And thank you for purchasing it. :)
hi this asset is very good, but the hitbox is too big pls make the hitbox smaler
I don't control the hitbox, that's whatever engine you're using. These are just art assets.
hi~
I really love this Assets~
I m still new to game dev，hope we can have more exchanges in the future^^
how i can get the water tileset for free :(?
You can look at the preview screens and use your own software to painstakingly recreate the tileset, pixel by pixel. Or maybe pay to support a great content creator.
im new to game dev, i want to practice using this as character. mind if i use it.
Go for it. :)
Yo, I wanted to create an rpg game on Godot with these assets, do you mind if I use them? Don't worry, the game I will be making won't be released to any kind of platform like steam or play store. It's just a little project for me and my friends.
Go for it, these assets are meant to be used. :)
hey I'm making a game and was wondering if i was allowed to use these assets and post it on steam and not get in trouble for i
You are allowed, but if you're selling your game then you need the premium version of the assets. Good luck with your game. :)
okay thank you for telling me and good luck on your assets
