How to create with GameGen

Three steps from idea to downloadable asset.

  1. 1

    Describe the character and action

    Specify the character appearance, weapon, and the action feel — e.g. 'armored knight, overhead axe swing, 32px pixel art' or 'mage, wind-up to fireball cast, HD anime style'.

  2. 2

    Choose action type and style

    Pick from attack, dash/roll, jump, skill cast, death, or idle-loop. Select pixel art for sprite games or HD illustration for card-style action stills.

  3. 3

    Set frame count

    4 frames for quick actions (dodge, hit flash); 6–8 for standard attacks and jumps; 12 for elaborate skill cast or death sequences.

Trusted creators

Loved by indie developers

I shipped my Game Jam entry with AI-generated sprites and BGM from GameGen. Saved me at least two days of asset work.

Alex Chen

Solo indie dev

The pixel character and asset pack tools let me test combat feel before hiring an artist. The style was consistent enough for a vertical slice.

2D RPG prototype

HD portraits with transparent backgrounds dropped straight into Ren'Py. We iterated on character designs in hours instead of weeks.
