Library of Books
- items size : 64x64
- available files: .asperite .png
What can you expect from this pixel books library?
- 33 closed books in 3 colors – for those who’ve always wondered how many versions of a book you can have without ever reading one.
- A skull in 4 colors – because every good library needs a “Skull of Wisdom” to make your bookshelves look ominously cool.
- 33 open books in 3 colors – for those who want to pretend they’ve just flipped through an epic novel, even though they’re actually just clicking on page numbers.
- 8 book spines in 3 colors – for when you want to give your bookshelf a ninja-like literary appearance. Hidden but dangerously good!
- 3x3 book stacks, because stacking is more fun than reading. (Come on, we know you.)
- A bunch of shelves and dressers, because your pixelated treasures deserve a dignified spot—not just strewn on the floor like at home.
- Bookstands in 3 variations – so you can finally display your favorite book with the honor it deserves… or so.
- Candelabras with flickering candles to give your library that slightly fiery charm. Only pixels can burn, so no worries!

This is freaking awesome! I've browsed literally thousands of asset packs on itch, & this is definitely one of the most unique and interesting ones I've stumbled across. Pixel spellbooks are a rare niche in and of themselves, but what you did with the "open book view" is easily my favorite part (with 11 variants per color, no less)! You really managed to cram an insane amount of detail into a tiny 50x33 pixel space. Also the stacked versions showing the spines with all the different storage/display options is a nice touch.
Honestly the ONLY critique I could even offer: As much as I like the palette you chose, I think the super bright red/blue/green on some of the covers looks just a little jarring? Though idk, whereas the vivid coloration would look a bit out of place in a gritty Diablo-esque fantasy RPG, it would be right at home in a game that was going for a more whimsical aesthetic. Anyway, I fully acknowledge that's just my personal preference, and the fact that you kept those parts to only 2-3 shades would make it very easy to recolor anything I wanted to make more grimdark or whatever lol.
But again, thank you for sharing this, and I'll certainly be keeping an eye out for your future work!
Thank you so much for your detailed and thoughtful feedback! 😊 I’m thrilled to hear that you enjoyed the open book views and the level of detail – working within such a small canvas of 50x33 pixels was definitely a challenge, but also a lot of fun to create all these variations.
Your point about the color palette is really interesting, and I completely agree – for a darker setting like a Diablo-style RPG, a more subdued color scheme would fit much better. I love the idea of offering an additional version with more muted, darker tones, and it’s definitely something I’ll consider for the future. It would be an exciting way to make the asset set even more versatile.
Thanks again for your fantastic feedback and support! I’m looking forward to sharing my future projects and hope they’ll resonate with you just as much. 😊
Cool
thank you :)
