Amazing work.

I'm not a very visually creative person. I want to be able to make virtual worlds but the assets are the problem for me. I think this will help alleviate that issue so thank you. Bought a copy.

(I really want a little RPG about exploring.)

OpenGameArt.org (OGA) has a lot of assets available for gaming [0]. In particular Kenney has loads of 2d and 3d assets that can be used as the basis for a wide array of games [1] [2] [3].

OGA has many Zelda-like tilesets. Some of my favorites: [4], [5], [6], [7], [8], [9], [10]

Also note that there's a FOSS Zelda game engine called Solarus [11].

Solarus looks utterly amazing. Thank you for directing me to that. LUA, too! So easy!

Thank you :-)

Don’ let that stop you! There are a ton of free assets both for Unity and Unreal. Check out e.g. the free category in the Unreal marketplace.

https://www.unrealengine.com/marketplace/

Search for the RPG category. There are whole RPG systems you can plug into Unreal which you can buy for laughably little money. (No affiliation, I just like what Epic is doing with the engine)

Oh, I know! I have a tonne of assets already. They just all feel disjointed and I'm bad at lighting :P
