Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use these assets in a commercial game?

Yes. All assets generated by PixExact tools are commercial-safe. You own the output and can use it in paid games, itch.io releases, App Store titles, or game jam submissions.

What game engines support these outputs?

PNG sprites, tilesets, and transparent cut-outs work in Unity, Godot, RPG Maker, GameMaker, and Phaser. GIF and sprite sheet outputs from Pixel Animation Maker are compatible with Godot's AnimationPlayer, Unity's Sprite Animator, and most web-based game frameworks.

What is the difference between Image to Pixel Art and Pixel Art Generator?

Image to Pixel Art takes an existing image — a photo, concept art, or sketch — and converts it into pixel style while preserving the original composition. Pixel Art Generator creates pixel art from scratch using a text prompt, with no source image needed. For a typical character workflow: generate a concept in Image Generator & Editor, then convert it to pixel style with Image to Pixel Art.

How do I create a full level background?

Start in Image Generator & Editor to create your scene at a standard size (e.g., 1024×576). Then use AI Image Extender to stretch it horizontally to your target width — 4096×450 for side-scrollers or 4096×720 for taller panoramas. The AI fills in the extended areas seamlessly.

Can I make all my game assets match a consistent visual style?

Yes. Use the same style keywords across all tools — for example, 'retro 16-bit RPG, muted earth tones, dark outlines' — and the AI maintains visual consistency across backgrounds, characters, tiles, and UI elements.

Do I need any art experience to use these tools?

No. Describe what you want in plain text — 'a fantasy knight sprite, dark armor, pixel art' or 'forest grass tileset, top-down view, 32×32' — and the AI handles the rest. Use the size reference table on this page to find the exact dimensions for your asset type.
