The Creative Commons section helped me get on my feet when it came to game development. Without it, my VN wouldn't exist.
Soooooo... I want to give back to this wonderful community
Being a writer, that made things a bit more difficult. However, I've enjoyed amateur photography for many years. I put together a free outdoor background pack that contains North American scenery, including parks, rivers, and beaches. You can download it here: https://tidalblossoms.itch.io/free-outd ... ackgrounds
This BG pack contains 20 unique oil painting style scenes from various seasons.
Original photos taken by myself. However, they've been softened and slightly recolored in an editor. All files are in PNG format.
They can be easily resized to 1920x1080, 1280x720, etc. while maintaining the original aspect ratio.
I decided to release them as free-to-use because I've struggled to find outdoor backgrounds that suited my needs in the past!
