sprite-magic

A tool for making and sharing game-ready spritesheets. Comes with a library of free sprites!

This software is in pre-release, though it's probably getting good enough to actually use now. If you're just looking to get down to business and have an easy-to-use, battle-tested program, be sure to check back later once the dust has settled a bit.

A pre-packaged Windows executable is available via the releases page; a Mac OS package will come eventually. If you want to run from source, you'll need: Python 2.7, NumPy, and PIL. New features, bugfixes, documentation, and art + spec contributions are welcome!

What is this?

Sprite Magic has two purposes:

  • To provide a tool which can bridge the gap between paperdoll-style artwork and game-ready spritesheets.
  • To provide a library of free (libre) artwork which can be used in a game.

As a bonus, Sprite Magic can easily be used by artists to help preview animations when creating sprites.
