where can i download it?
Hi! Not at the moment. But I'll be posting an update soon to open sales.
Thanks for interest! :)
Ahhhh, I see that you have worked on quite a lot since I last checked this project, it is looking so cool, mate. Well done!
I've made some progress on it but stopped a while ago to dedicate time to other projects as well. https://game2dom.itch.io/action-rpg-game-system-for-gdevelop When will you upload equipment icons? :))
Maaaan, that ARPG system is looking sick!
The icons is on my to-do list! Want to wrap up at least 2 new free packs - emoticons and another 3 fonts - and start working at least on a partial pack of icons. Still need to make time to add more content to the Battle Kit 2 and make a tool for people to better take advantage of both the Char and Face workshops.
Oh man, so much to do and so little time!
Hehe, okay! I'm a little overwhelmed too. I'm currently working on this system, and I want it to have all the features expected of an action RPG. Then I'll move on to the combat system. :D
Where is the Buy/Download option for this asset?
You can buy the assets here. tiopalada - itch.io
It is great to see my assets being used! I just made that one update adding the moving sprites for heroes. More for the monsters will come soon - as well as new BGs and new bosses.
Excellent! I'm completing this system and it still needs some improvements. :) I would like to know if you have an asset pack of these characters, with their weapons included in the animations or just separated?
As of now I have them as split sprites since I plan to add lots more of weapons. Since the weapon canvas has the same size and the placement is already made within the canvas, just drawing them over their sprites in the same X and Y is enough.
Ah okay, no problem. When I have some free time I'll make the adjustments in PSD. :) I hope you'll upload more icons for the skills and the menu soon.
These will come as well :D I hope that sooner than later
