About SpriteCook
SpriteCook is an AI art tool that helps game developers create artwork around their own ideas. It’s built for the ongoing process of making a game: exploring a visual direction, trying different looks, and adding new assets as the project takes shape.
You can start with a description or reference image and develop a style that suits your game. Themes and saved presets help you carry that direction into later work, so adding a new enemy or inventory item doesn’t mean starting from scratch each time. SpriteCook supports pixel art and other 2D styles, giving you room to experiment with the look of your project.
Animation is part of that workflow too. You can take generated or uploaded artwork, describe how it should move, and export the result as a sprite sheet for your game engine. This makes it useful for testing how a character looks and feels in motion alongside the mechanics you’re building.

Aseprite
Aseprite lets you create 2D animations for video games. From sprites, to pixel-art, retro style graphics, and whatever you like about the 8-bit and 16-bit era. It has a color mode, which tell you how many colors the image can handle. All images in the sprite are in one specific mode, you cannot mix RGB images with Indexed images in the same sprite. It contains a set of layers. You can see them in the Timeline. The most important concept here is that there are two kind of layers: the background layer for opaque sprites, and transparent layers. A sprite can contain only one background layer, but several transparent layers. It contains animation frames. Each frame has a duration, i.e. how many milliseconds the frame must be on screen when the animation is being played. Integrate Aseprite in your assets pipeline with the command-line interface (CLI). Store several animations in one texture atlas.
