What an incredible collection!
I'm using some of them in Scarmonde, my 8-bit styled dungeon crawler!
I'm attempting to reach out to you about a commission, also. Do you still do them?

It'll PROBABLY be sold, but not for much.
RPG Maker MV offered far more freedom, and the plug-ins and whatnot allowed me to spice up the gameplay in ways the older makers didn't. I'd been tossing the idea around in my head about remaking Scarmonde for a while, then said to heck with it! After To Aerthen, I wanted something that was class-based but also focused entirely on its gameplay... and remembered Scarmonde was just that!
"A star came from the endless void and crashed onto Aerthen. A second followed. Valorkis, lord of the northernmost kingdom of Telruse, discovered the first fallen star. Upon and around it, Telruse was forged into the mighty empire of Ilvorya.
The second star landed in an unnamed forest surrounding an unremarkable village. It was discovered by a simple housewife. From this heavenly rock she drew the power to at last bare a child, whom she named Zephyr... Ilvorya has dominated Aerthen. Lord Valorkis propagates the miraculous power of his almighty god, XORMOTH, through the sublime might of his RaLune Knights. Little can stand against the Ilvoryan Empire. Except...
Zephyr, child of the stars, has awakened to his true purpose: destroy XORMOTH and liberate Aerthen of his tyranny. Aided by his lifelong friend, the two must embark across the world to reach and dismantle Ilvorya from within."

To Aerthen is my fusion of Final Fantasy's visual style with the campy storytelling of LUNAR.
Expect 2-4 hours of turn-based action in the FREE DEMO released yesterday!
