Pixel Dreamer Studio - https://pixeldreamerstudio.itch.io

Not AI-generated images: every layer is drawn shape by shape by code.

WHAT'S INSIDE
- 1 scene (Torii & Sakura Hill) x 3 times of day (day, dusk, night)
- img/parallaxes: 7 separate layers per scene (L0 sky ... L6 particles), 1120x624, tile left-right
  + the whole scene in one image for MZ's own parallax
- img/battlebacks1 + battlebacks2: 1000x740 battle backgrounds
- img/titles1: 816x624 title screens
- js/plugins/PD_ParallaxLayers.js: multi-layer parallax plugin

INSTALL (2 minutes)
1. Copy the "img" folder into your MZ project folder (it only adds files that start with PD_).
2. Copy js/plugins/PD_ParallaxLayers.js into your project's js/plugins folder.
3. Plugin Manager > add PD_ParallaxLayers > ON.
4. Map Properties > Note:   <PDParallax: Torii_Sakura_Hill day>
   Leave the tiles empty where the background should show (for example the
   top 9 rows of a 13-row map, with a path or terrace below).

Times of day: day, dusk, night. Plugin commands:
  Set Scene        - change scene/time with a fade
  Set Time of Day  - crossfade day/dusk/night (same layout, lamps light up in place)
  Clear            - fade the background out
Optional notetag settings: fall:0.4 (negative = rise)  drift:0.3  clouds:0.2
Full help: Plugin Manager > PD_ParallaxLayers > Help.

NO PLUGIN?
- img/parallaxes/PD_<Scene>_<time>.png is the whole scene in one image (1120x624,
  tiles left-right). Use it as the map's normal Parallax Background with "Loop Horizontally".
- img/battlebacks1 + battlebacks2: pick the same name in both for the full scene,
  or use only battlebacks2 (sky + skyline, transparent at the bottom) over any MZ floor.
- img/titles1: title screens.
