This beautifully detailed and colorful pixel art tileset is loaded with a huge variety of tools to create an expansive wilderness in any kind of top-down RPG or adventure game. The tiles are 16x16, and the style is designed to emulate the look and feel of classic SNES RPGs such as Secret of Mana and Chrono Trigger. In this tileset you'll find the following elements:
- 4 different ground textures (regular grass, sunken grass, dirt, cobblestone), each with plenty of variation, and auto-tiled to blend into the environment.
- A transparent auto-tiled undergrowth texture for covering any other type of ground texture or hiding a transition.
- Cliffs of varying height that transitions into grass, dirt, water, or overhang, complete with stairs and a cave entrance.
- Standing water, both shallow and deep, with a 6-frame OR 8-frame animated waterfall.
- Animated sparkles, cats tails, and lily pads to decorate your water.
- 3 different trees (chestnut, maple, and birch)
- Stumps, fallen logs, branches, and leaves for each tree type.
- All trees and stumps have variations for placement on either grass or dirt.
- 4 different smaller plants.
- 6 different mushrooms that grow in summer.
- Black Trumpet
- Yellow Chantrelle
- Turkey Tail (made to go on a tree trunk)
- Chicken Fat Bolete
- Weeping Bolete
- Shiitake
- Flowering grass tiles in 8 variations.
- Tall grass with cut version and falling blades (so you can incorporate grass cutting into your game).
- 7 different rocks, each set in grass, dirt, or water.
- Small tufts of grass and lumps of dirt to place at the base of your buildings to help blend them into the environment better.
- A few semi-transparent shadow tiles for adding depth to your cliffs.
- Ploppable objects, like trees, bushes and rocks, separated onto smaller sheets of like tile size to make them easier to slice.
- A custom tree wall autotile made from 8x8-tile supertiles.
- A little bonus stone bridge from my Bridges & More tileset.
In addition to the tileset itself, this asset pack also includes a usage guide assembled in Tiled (TMX files), which helps demonstrate how many elements are intended to function, as well as providing some ideas for maps of your own.

Can we provide free graphics packages on our RPG Maker site? In return, we would be happy to post links to other packages available in your store.
Twierdza RPG Maker Polska
Sorry, no. That would be redistribution, which is prohibited by my license. Please read if you have further questions: https://selieltheshaper.weebly.com/user-license.html
I read the license, which is why I'm writing directly to you. You have several packs marked as "free". We are a well-known website in Poland dedicated to RPG Maker engines. As one of the editors, I noticed your work and thought I could promote it a bit on our site. The chief editor gave the green light, but he asked me to check with you if we could upload one of the packs marked as "Free" on our website.
As a site dedicated to RPG Maker engines, we have a resource database and the ability to include links to the official store. Our users often want to download a sample before deciding to purchase graphic packs.
For you, this could mean an additional audience for your work, and for us, having permission to upload even one or two free packs would be a great way to expand our resource base. I was thinking about the packs tagged "free".
Of course, if there is any obstacle to promoting your work with already freely available packs, we, as the editorial team, will understand.
Sorry, but still no. Even if I offer a product for free, I still need people to acquire it from my page, under circumstances I control. They see the screenshots I choose, they see the links I choose. They improve my metrics by just visiting the page, making it more likely to show up on search queries and get suggested to others by itchio. They are in my product ecosystem, and are more likely to see and buy other products of mine. Your website is an unknown quantity. I have no idea what to expect from you or your site. You're seeking to use my art to increase your own sales, not mine. If you want to help out your followers, you can provide them a link to this page and tell them they can find some free stuff here. But they still need to get that free stuff from me, not you.
Twierdza RPG Maker Polska is not a sales website. We are an informational site about the aforementioned engine, interesting graphic resources, tutorials, and so on. Many users still use RPG Maker 2k, which is compatible with the 16x16 resolution of your works. Our editorial team is happy to inform users about interesting resources, but only if we can offer a free demo for download on the site. Well, if you don't want to expand your reach to the Polish community, we understand. Thank you for your time and I wish you good luck.
Personally, I would like to add that I bought a graphics pack for my game, and it's great.
That's awesome! Can't wait to see what you're inspired to make 😁👍
You seem to be launching a new tileset every few days, having only popped into existence less than a month ago. I've been creating assets for almost 6 years, and it still takes me weeks or even months to draw a tileset by hand. I think you'll be fine without hearing what I have to say about any of that 👍
Can use in RPG maker 2000?
I don't know anything about RPG Maker 2000.
Yes
That's not likely, I'm afraid. Way too much labor for little payoff.
Yes, you can make any kinds of edits or additions you want for your game. Good luck! 🙏🏽
is there w way to scale your assests from 16x16 to 48x48?
You can do that in any image editor. Resize/resample to 300%. Just choose "nearest neighbor" or "none" for the interpolation method or it'll be blurry.
If you need this to fit into RPG Maker, you may need to cut the sheet into smaller pieces, depending on your need.
This is all very basic image editing, available in everything from MS Paint to Photoshop, and important skills to have if you want to make a game. Maybe Google "how to prepare custom tilesets for RPG Maker" or something like that.
do you plan on making a swamp tileset?/ also do you take commissions for tilesets?
I think my Rainforest Jungle tileset can serve for a swamp (it's got trees growing out of water and big lily pads you can walk on), but no immediate plans for a dedicated swamp tileset.
You can follow the commission link I've put at the bottom of every product page for information on what kinds of commissions I do.
Omg I didn't see that one, it's so pretty! do you plan to do more tilesets in the future?, I love your style so much!
Yes, i plan to expand the Mana Seed collection for many years to come. That means more tilesets, monsters, NPCs, icons, and more 😊🙏🏽
license to use? videogame commercial?
There's a link to the Mana Seed User License at the bottom of EVERY product page. You didn't need to post this question in seven different places.
Hello, we have downloaded your material, very beautiful, very exquisite, hope to use in our game, of course, we will mark your name! Thank you very much!
Thank you for the kind words! I wish your game all the success 🤗
When my game is released on steam, thank you very much!
These seasonal forest tilesets are just absolute perfection! All the extras you took the time to include (sample Tiled maps, terrain brushes, wang tiles, etc.) have been a tremendous help. Thank you so much, and keep up the amazing work!
Thanks for the kind words! I'm glad you've found them helpful in your gamedev journey 🤗
Are the "tree wall" tiles A4 in RPGmaker?
I don't know what that means, i don't use RPG Maker. The tiles are 128x128, and the sheet is 768x512.
Beautiful work! I was surprised to see that the ground textures consist of only 19 tiles, not the 47 needed for a 'complete' autotile. Which would be great for a farming RPG. Also, would you mind including the colour palette in the files, too?
Thanks for the compliment. I'm sorry it doesn't have all the exact tiles for your needs. I'm guessing you're referring to single tile lines, ends, corners, intersections, etc? Unfortunately, I didn't make this tileset with that particular type of gameplay in mind, but you're more than welcome to do some sprite bashing to make the ones that are missing for your system. If you can't do that then maybe adjust your gameplay to remove that issue. 2x2 tiles is the smallest unit of measure for this autotile, so maybe have players dig out bigger patches of dirt? 🤷♀️
I've made a note to add color palettes the next time I revisit the seasonal forest assets for a future update 👍
You're right, I'll just go with it! Maybe I'll just skip this whole tilling the soil. Who needs that? It's the least fun part. 😁
Point folks to this: https://wareya.github.io/webtyler/
It can convert a few base tiles into different autotile types (rpg maker, godot, gamemaker, etc).
Wow, so detailed! I like all the detail going on with the water and the overpass over the river.
Love what your putting together, convinced me to sign on for your patreon to keep up to date on this cool stuff!
Thanks! Happy to have you 😊
Hello, one question: is this compatible with RPG Make MV? Curious since I'd be willin' to invest in this tileset for my game! Thank you!
The tiles are 16x16, so it's not natively compatible. However, I have shared some resources I found that may help you implement my assets with MV: https://www.patreon.com/posts/32139093
Thank you, was deeply interested in that awesomely drawn waterfall :)
You can also enlarge (nearest neighbor) the image to 300%. This will give you the proper tile size without losing any of the pixel integrity/quality.
This is an amazing tileset! I'm glad I'm supporting you on Patreon :)
Thanks a lot! It's your support that makes this possible 😁
