AI sprite sheet generator # Turn your character into an animated sprite sheet Give your hero a run, your explorer a walk, or your slime a bounce. Start from a character idea or your own reference and choose the moves for your game. [Create a sprite sheet](https://www.summerengine.com/studio?tab=image&mode=spritesheet) [Browse sprites](https://www.summerengine.com/es/asset-store/sprites) The short answer Create a sprite sheet from a character prompt or a reference image in Summer Engine. Choose Idle, Run, Walk, Punch or a custom motion. Each animation becomes an 8-frame PNG on a 4 by 2 grid, ready to take into your animation workflow. Choose a character idea below to fill an editable prompt, or start with your own. Opening an idea does not start generation. Generation uses credits and the account access shown in Studio. Start here ## Choose a character idea Pick an idea and make it yours. Each opens the generator with an editable character prompt.

How it works ## How the sprite sheet generator works From one character to a set of moves in three steps. ### 1\. Start with a character Describe a character or add your own reference. Without a reference, Studio first generates one character image for the animation tasks. ### 2\. Choose its moves Run is selected initially. Add Idle, Walk, Punch or a custom motion, then press Generate. Each selected move uses the same character reference. ### 3\. Take it into your game Download the sheets for your animation workflow, or import them from Studio with a project open in the Summer Engine desktop app. Motions ## Choose an animation Build a set for your character, from a quiet idle to an attack. Choose one or several moves. ### Idle Give your character an idle loop. This is separate from the still character reference. ### Run A run to the right for a side-view character. This is the initial selection. ### Walk A walk to the right for explorers, townspeople and side-view adventures. ### Punch A punch to the right for a brawler or action character. ### Custom Describe a slime bouncing, a character raising a staff, or another clear action. Export ## Bring the animation into your engine The output is a PNG grid with 4 columns and 2 rows. Slice it by grid and set up playback in your engine. | Engine | Import step | Animation setup | | ------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------- | -------------------------------------------- | | Summer Engine | Import from Studio with a desktop project open | Configure the animation in your project | | Godot 4 | Add frames from the sheet to SpriteFrames using 4 columns and 2 rows | Frame order and AnimatedSprite2D playback | | Unity | Use Sprite Mode Multiple and slice by a 4 by 2 cell count | Frame order and Animation clip playback | | GameMaker | Import the sheet as 8 frames with 4 frames per row | Frame size, origin and sprite playback speed | For AI agents ## Prepare the Studio form with an AI agent Use the Summer Engine MCP to fill the Studio prompt and motion controls with your AI agent. ### Describe your character Turn a character idea into a filled Studio prompt. ``` Fill the sprite-sheet prompt with a small slime enemy with two large eyes. ``` ### Choose the motion Select a preset move or add a custom action in the same form. ``` Select Walk and add a custom bouncing motion for the slime. ``` Honest limits ## A few things to know ### Generated frames need a look Character details, poses and alignment can vary. Check the sheet before use; a simpler motion can help. ### Background removal The workflow removes the background. Inspect the edges for leftover pixels or missing details. ### PNG output Each animation is an 8-frame PNG grid, without a JSON atlas or character controller. Set up cropping, frame order and playback in your engine. ## AI sprite sheet generator FAQ How do I start a sprite sheet? Choose a character idea on this page or open the generator. Describe a character or add your own reference, choose its motions, then press Generate in Studio. Does choosing an idea start generation? No. It fills an editable character prompt. Generation starts when you press Generate in Studio. Is generation free? Generation uses credits and the account access shown in Studio. Opening the form does not generate or spend credits. Can I use my own character image? Yes. Add your character as a reference image. Studio can animate from that reference; without one, it first generates a character image. Which animations can I choose? Idle, Run, Walk, Punch and custom motions. Run, Walk and Punch use right-facing motion prompts. Each animation sheet has 8 frames on a 4 by 2 grid. Can I request pixel art? Yes. Describe a pixel-art character and the look you want in the prompt. Can I use the result in another engine? Download the PNG and configure its grid and playback in your engine. Studio also has an import action for an open Summer Engine desktop project.
