Did you draw the sprites yourself? Or is there a open collection somewhere?

The main character sprite was ripped directly from Chrono Trigger[1], a SNES game. A lot of gamers I know consider it to be one of the best RPGs ever made.

The tiles are very familiar but I can't for the life of me remember which commercial game they are from. They're used a lot in indie games. A lot of sprites from the SNES era are. :)

Tiles are from secret of mana 3 if I remember correctly. Chrono used just because of the sprite availability, it was one of my favorite games as a kid

I know that the main char is from CT, I was just wondering if someone had a free rendering of him, or it was simply a SNES rip.
