CHARACTER STUDIO

I started work on a little tool to make it easier for me to make my sprites but then I thought it was a pretty good tool that others might find useful so I've been expanding it to be even more useful and easier to use.


I know super man does not wear gloves but I really felt like he did :P
A lot of these sheets were made by modifying other sheets, for instance the symbol on his chest is a white t-shirt colored yellow and cut down and then another colored red and cut down. and his blue suit is just another body colored blue with the head cut off.

I know I didn't bother finishing Harleys hair because of laziness.
The tool has frame editing features like Move frame, Stretch frame, Copy/Paste, and selection delete
It also features a color swap program where you can take the colors already in a sheet and switch them for other colors.
You can also choose export styles like sprite order(different RPGMakers use different sprite order) and mask color(I still don't have Alpha working)
You can also merge layers and export as a prefab to create new sheets to be used on other characters.
The program even allows you to add your own Sheets or even complete sets from scratch with your own frame measurements.
I'm almost finished with it and hope to have it released on itch before the end of lockdown

I remember you posting screencaps on the site's Discord channel. Glad to see it here too. However, I'm inclined to suggest that you submit this as a utility?
Hmm I did not know I could do that. I will look into it
Edit: Is there anyway to say it works for any engine, it seems to be forcing me to choose only one engine that it is designed for
Edit2: Also I have changed the name to Pixel Character Maker(Before I get a C&D from autodesk)

I think the best you can do in your case is to define the engine as "Other" (perhaps "Custom"?), and say in the description that the tool can produce character sprite-graphics usable by a wide array of game-development engines, and go from there. I think that's basically what I suggested for Garage's character generator tool whenever-it-was-ago?
