    I tried to build AI game animation generator last year ( https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=40395221), a lot of people were interested, but it failed, mainly because the technology was not good enough. 1 year passed, there were a lot of developments in video/image generation. I tried it again, I think it works super well now. Actually beyond my expectation. You can generate all kinds of game character animation sprites with only 1 image. 1, upload your image of your character 2, choose the action you want 3, generate! Support basic actions like Run, Jump, Punch and…

    Hi HN! 2d spritesheets for game development are often distributed as a PNG image, sometimes with a separate JSON or XML metadata document describing the layout, including any animation sequences within the sheet. Sometimes there is no metadata document and you have to work it out and manually write custom code to chop up the spritesheet and reference the sprites you want. I think it would be good if it became standard practice to distribute spritesheet PNGs with the metadata inline inside a PNG "chunk" so the whole thing is self-contained. That way artists can just distribute one file, and…

    I made a huge breakthrough in sprite animation today. I originally asked image models to generate all the frames of a spritesheet corresponding to an animation (e.g., "running to the left" or "jumping") in one image. It didn't really work. Only about 10% of the time would it give me a satisfactory result. Then, I tried to generate all the frames with separate requests to the model in a loop, passing in all the other frames for reference. This significantly improved the likelihood of the model getting the animation correct on a conceptual level. But the subject in each frame was perceptibly…
