How these sprites are made
These sprites are not simple one-click AI outputs. I use generative AI only at the rough idea stage to explore poses and shapes. After that I redraw and clean everything by hand in Photoshop: fixing anatomy, adjusting palettes, removing jaggies pixel by pixel, and testing each monster inside RPG Maker to make sure the scale and clarity feel right in-game.
Because this workflow mixes AI assistance with a lot of manual polishing, I kindly ask that you don’t use these files as training data for new AI models. Small creators rely on direct asset sales, and turning finished packs into free training datasets makes it harder to keep releasing new work. If you like this style, I’d be very happy if you use the sprites themselves in your games instead.
Why this exists
Our second Japanese set focuses on urban-legend horror and modern folklore—creatures that shaped Showa and Heisei-era ghost stories. We added iconic figures left out from Volume 1 and aimed for a lineup that works naturally in horror RPGs or “urban legend hunter” adventures.
