I'm wondering if I should get the MONSTERS LEGACY 1. But I have no idea if it will have the battlers I want. I'm looking for some animals basically. Alligator, Giant Eagle, Bears, etc. Does anyone you have any idea what is inside? I didn't want to spend $30 on stuff that doesn't have what I want. And now for the crickets.

Hi there. Jesse would answer better, and I don't have the pack. But you could see some of the selection on his website here? https://pioneervalleygames.com/monster-legacy-i.html

Also it's worth noting that Monsters Legacy (which has been on my wishlist forever lol) has been discounted a number of times during seasonal sales, even as recent as a few weeks ago. It's definitely worth waiting a little.

Btw don't know if you already got the other packs, but the High Fantasy (aka non Medieval) packs have some animal battlers like snakes, dragonflies, lizards, spiders, stagbeetles, wolves, lion, bees, scorpion, bison, bull, giant bats, giant rats, polar bear, shark, stag etc). Hope this helps?

Signed,
the crickets

@Alkorri, thanks for the speedy reply. Most of my posts go unanswered unless it's by the mods to tell me I placed in the wrong section and they move it to the right section. Where it usually goes to die. I was waiting for it to go on sale. But now I see it doesn't have the battlers I'm looking for. I only have the DS Resource Pack and Ancient Dungeons: Base Pack. Got them when they were on sale. I didn't see any non-Medieval High Fantasy Pack. Thanks for the help.
@ekhartpl I don't see any of the animals I was looking for on the link. Thanks for the link. The search continues.

Okay :) Worth noting that the High Fantasy/Medieval styles are of course different from the DS packs and the Ancient Dungeon/RTP.

There are plenty of free battlers if you google, I'm sure. I see one alligator-like thing in the Egyptian Myth battlers pack. I also don't mean to sound condescending, but perhaps after some searching and requesting, there comes a time when you just make a game based on what resources you do have or can find? Sometimes we don't always find what we want even though we want to make it perfect, but acceptable placeholders work for me as a compromise. Who knows, perhaps down the line someone does make that alligator battler and I can shove it in.

Yeah, I know it's a different style. I was planning on replacing the other battlers with the ones from Monster Legacy pack if they had the alligator. There are about 15 in the game so far.
I've checked google but someone owns them. And if I want to go commercial I can't use graphics owned by a company, person, etc. Unless they say otherwise.
The alligator in the Egyptian Myth is a different art style. And will stick out like a sore thumb. I don't think you are trying to sound condescending. I know you are just trying to help. :)
I've built an entire chapter around the alligator battler. Guess I thought someone would have one. And that chapter affects other ones after it. Including Sprites, NPCs, storyline and even the Chapter Name 'What A Croc' I'm using a placeholder but it belongs to a game. Also ties into the myth of alligators in the sewer later on. Which also ties into the chapter name. Each Chapter somehow interconnects with the one after it.

Whoa you built half a game around having that alligator/crocodile XD Perhaps it's time to consider saving up to commission someone? Or taking something from public domain and touching it up.

No, just 2 ot of 7 chapters. I tried commissioning someone. They stopped talking to me. I couldn't find anything in the public domain that fit. Or was for commercial use.

@Tanarex - I do not think I have ever gotten around to making an alligator, unfortunately. I am not sure if I even have a regular alligator model to work from, though I do have a monster alligator type creature, but probably not what you're looking for.

So the one I have (and have had sitting around my hard drive for years and never used) is this guy:

So not really an alligator perse, something more of a alligator/dinosaur hybrid.

That is an amazing monster. It might not be a crocodile but it is pretty cool for many genres.

I hope it gets the new battler treatment and sees publishing in the future.

Nope. Not the one I saw a while back ago. It was a half-dragon hybrid. I mean it looks cool and everything. I have no doubt people will use it. But yeah, I still need a more traditional alligator. If you have the time. Don't suppose you have a Giant Eagle?

Anybody else do this thing where you go like, "Oooh, so-and-so wud be such a good name for a game!" And then you write it down. And then yo games-to-be-made folder has like, 89 entries wid nothin' but a name?

Just me? :kaoswt:
