I don't think so, I am sorry but it would be a big translation and I cannot find the time to devote to it.

Thanks for that, I really wanted to get this set. I just tried dropping them into PowerQuest into one of my generic adventure rooms, added your computer and two of your doors and it looked so darn good just walking around I almost passed out. Just what the doctor ordered. I think I may work off your generic figure (correct scale) to make some mutants/zombies for it.
Really good artwork considering the size of the resolution and color palette. :)
Looks like Resident Evil meets LucasArts Adventure game, perfect for a lot of storylines.
In watching your demo animations it appears the sprite is more than complete to make a 2D adventure game and have a pretty good main character. Very detailed for such a small pixel resolution. I wish more stuff of this calibre was posted that was qualified to use for an adventure game. I've gone nuts on the genre since I discovered PowerQuest on this site. Working hard on a game right now with it and if I can drop these animations in I might craft my next game around them.
P.S. Declined my card, sorry. I use it daily to buy stuff on Itch.io so I don't know what is different with this purchase.
There is no comparison.
Some things have "flow."
Other things suck and are not well thought out. They lack Zen.
Adventure Creator is for people who can't program and have no zen. They don't know any better. They think AC is how development is supposed to feel. Agonizing, torturous and so over-engineered everything takes forever. That's blasphemy on the Unity forum, you never attack AC. It is the Pope of the Asset Store.
I've bought every tool on the Unity Asset Store for one simple reason ... I wanted to build a combination Adventure Game and Turn-Based combat RPG. No, wait ... I meant I wanted to build LOTS and LOTS of games like this, a sort of genre that particularly interests me.
I started in Adventure Creator, found it slow - tedious - boring and overengineered. Two hours in it and I am checked out mentally. I have lost my initial enthusiasm for my game concept. Too much piddling with a weird set of flags in Visual Script. It doesn't even feel like game design to me it's so labyrinthine.
Started last Friday just playing with PowerQuest having accidentally discovered it here on Itch.io. You know when something is good when you start playing with it and it sucks you into hyperfocus.
It is one week later and I have my prototype up and running ... three dramatic cutscenes, a cast of characters and a very atmospheric game that is what I wanted ... focused on the story and emotions with a component of turn-based combat. The Turn-Based battles are already spectacular. I was trying to copy the fights in "Shelter" and I almost cloned them.
I don't think I would have gotten this far in it in Adventure Creator and after a month I'd probably abandon it.
FLOW is essential to game development. I've written a lot of them and I can tell you that without FLOW you will never finish your game. If the engine itself is an ordeal, the development becomes torturous. It needs to FLOW like PowerQuest.
The ideal background is you should be at least a competent programmer in C# for Unity. You would also be greatly helped if you ever played with the original Adventure Game Studio back in the day (AGS) because this engine is like that one except vastly superior.
UPDATE : After another week of working in PowerQuest, I am blown away. So much better than Adventure Creator as far as 2D goes it is not a fair comparison. A better kit than the old ADVGTK. Spend the time to learn how it works, your brain will be fried at how well thought out it is. Everything is fun and effortless and it flows right through your fingers. You can focus on the story and game mechanics.
My initial attempt at this is a crude JRPG but you'd be amazed at how easy it can be.
READ THE DOCUMENTATION. THEN READ IT AGAIN. It is invaluable.
I am stunned at how much I was able to learn about it just playing with it before I read the documentation.
I set out to incorporate turn-based battle between PQ characters on Tuesday. It's Thursday night at 11:30 pm and a multi-character party is working really good. The first character I recruited into my party was a dog to assist in the combat and he turned out pretty cool, too.
It is the most intuitive, clever tool I have ever bought and I must have purchased half the Unity store. It all lacks something that Powerquest has. It's is obviously the product of many years of experience by a master developer who had a lot of Adventure Game Studio under his belt.
You'll need some C# skill, some Unity experience and a capacity to appreciate how instinctive it is. Many different turn-based kits of the Unity store will integrate nicely with this tool. My first effort is going to be simple, I am certain I will finish this game now that I understand this tool.
