Horror resources by Blackxwolf

Welcome to my horror resources topic with a very original title!

 

Terms of use:

Free to use for both non-commercial and commercial games (they're just RTP edits) with credit given. I would like it if you'd send me a link to your game if you're using them, though!

You should also give credit to:

Enterbrain (for making the original RTP)

Aindra (for the sink)

I am open to suggestions / requests.

 

Instructions:

 

-make sure you put a $ before the filename, so name the file $mirror for example, except for the ghost kids
-for mirrors, paintings, hearths, coffins, portals and the windows set the stepping animation on
-for sink, clocks and bookcases set custom move route and then face left, face right, face up, face down
-for the book use both the stepping animation and the custom move route
-if you want the sink to fill instead of draining or want the clocks to move like normal clocks, set the custom move route to face up, face right, face left, face down
-the speed of the animation can be adjusted by changing 'frequency'

-for the portals: make sure !$ is in the filename!

 

 

Animated Objects:

Characters / Battlers:

 

 

Icons:

 

You'll have to put them into your iconset yourself.

 

 

 

Examples:

 

Here are (not-so-great-quality) gifs to show how they could look in your game:

These are very interesting and something I hadn't thought of before.

[Blackxwolf 51]

Thanks Cait!

Here's some new stuff: a bloody sink (could be filling or draining if you put it backwards), which is a recolor of Aindra, so credit her if you use it. Also some fading ghosts of both the boy and girl, if you put on the stepping animation, it looks like they're walking towards you. I'm not showing a gif of them because they become transparent and against the white background of the forums it's not really visible.

Oh, you should put custom move route and then face left, face right, face up, face down in case you didn't know.

and the gif:

Ah, Thank you! I was looking for some like these, so I will be sure to use them and credit.

[+ dbchest 160]

i approve and hope to see more.

[Knighterius 502]

Yeah! Hehe I'd definitely like to see more! They are molto bene! I really like them I'm so going to use that mirror skeleton one as a way for the player to die if they go near it or something heh heh...thanks

[Blackxwolf 51]

Thanks all, here are some spooky windows each with 4 different flavours. The castle one is supposed to go with the tower in Outside C of the rtp. Oh and the last row of the castle tower is a coffin appearing, which may not be very clear...

and gifs:

@Knighterius: that's a good idea, the player will probably get really pissed off because nobody thinks of saving the game before approaching a mirror, ha!

[Blackxwolf 51]

So this is a double post but here is some new stuff and it's been over 3 days so I hope it's ok...

Clocks in three colours that could go either forward or backward, change the frequency to set the speed of the animation by the way. A book that's mysteriously falling out of the bookcase, please use frequency 'high' or 'highest' so it looks like a smooth fall.

Gifs for example (clocks go forward here but you could put them counter-clockwise too (that's creepy, right?)):

I should update the first post too...

[Knighterius 502]

Oh wow!! That book case is amazing!! Spooky library here I come! Thanks

[Blackxwolf 51]

@Knighterius: Thanks! Spooky libraries are the best!

Got two more: cracking mirror (rtp includes normal and ruined mirror but no animation) and what is hiding in the hearth?

It's a monster a rat or a floating eyeball? What??

Didn't make gifs for them, though, but you get the idea.

[Knighterius 502]

Dang it!! I've reached my quota of positive votes Dx...that fire place is just what I needed! Thank you

[Blackxwolf 51]

Ok so the whole spooky library thing got me inspired and resulted in this:

Secret doors with bookcases. I believe I've seen someone do it with the bigger 2x2 bookcase before, but not sure about that... Anyways, you can choose whether it opens to reveal a way through or whether it opens to reveal a door. And of course the animation for opening said door. So take your pick.

[Knighterius 502]

That is so cool o.o like too cool. ^~^ Ahh, now you're just spoiling us! ^~^

[Blackxwolf 51]

Currently I've got the flu and a really really sore throat, so not much time to do anything. Here's a small update though:

Haunted book that writes itself. Use both stepping animation and the custom move route.

[Knighterius 502]

Yay yay yay!! Can't believe I missed your latest update!! DX Awwww, get well soon, BackxWolf!! ^~^ *gives you Kayako's homemade soup*

[Blackxwolf 51]

Aaaaand here's another update (it's been a while!):

Some blood splatter thingies in a character sheet, though you could put it in a tileset or use it for parallax mapping too. Not sure about the shade of red.

[RandomGamer100 8]

I like this                           :):):):)

[Blackxwolf 51]

@RandomGamer100: Thanks!

 

Here's some coffins sliding open and creepy eyes appearing in two flavors.

 

NANANANANANANANA BATRAT!

The battler is not that good but I'm surprisingly happy with the sprite.

I should probably clean up the first post a bit, it's starting to look cluttered... maybe tomorrow.

Edited January 13, 2015 by Blackxwolf

[Knighterius 502]

That is a really cool batrat. o.o

[Blackxwolf 51]

@Knighterius: thank you!   

Another update:

Semi-transparant animated portals to other dimensions or the next level or whatever else you might need a portal for.

[+ Robin-Lightning 65]

These are so pretty!

Ehehehe, mischevious mode on XD.

Keep it up!

[Blackxwolf 51]

My personal life has been hectic for the last couple of months and tons of work for my study so I wasn't very active anymore. Here's a new small update, though.

Priest doing an exorcism with a glowing crucifix:

Icons with blood and cracked mirror (you'll have to put them in your iconset by yourself):

 

Further updates will come, but it may take some time.

[Paprika 2]

This is great!!!!

Can i use this?-I'll put you in credits!!!  

[Blackxwolf 51]

@Paprika: Thanks and yes, of course you can use them!

[+ Robin-Lightning 65]
