Choosing a workflow
What should I ask of an AI pixel art generator?
Define the canvas size, palette, camera angle and intended animation before generating assets. Inspect edges and frame alignment at native size. Pixel-like styling is not enough if individual frames drift in scale, direction or character proportions.
Can generated sprites be used as a sprite sheet?
Check how the chosen tool exports frames, transparency and spacing. Import a short loop into your engine and verify frame order, pivots and timing. Export formats and current feature access need confirmation with the provider; this directory has not tested those exports.
Should I generate the whole cast at once?
Start with one representative character and a small movement set. Keep the reference and style brief, then see whether a second character fits the same camera and palette. That trial exposes cleanup work before you commit to a larger art set.
