Pixel art character generator
Describe any hero, enemy or NPC and get a game-ready pixel art character in seconds — a transparent PNG you can drop straight into your engine, then animate with idle, walk, attack and more.
Characters generated with pixler.dev
pixler.dev is an AI pixel art character generator built for game developers. Type a description — "undead knight in cracked black armor", "friendly baker NPC with an apron" — and the model returns a full-body, pixel-perfect character with a transparent background, already cut out and ready to use. It runs in your browser at sizes from 16 up to 256 pixels, so characters drop straight into Godot, Unity or GameMaker with nothing to clean up.
Heroes, enemies and NPCs
Player characters, bosses, villagers, shopkeepers, monsters — if you can describe it, the model draws it as a full-body pixel art character with bold outlines and a readable silhouette at game scale.
Transparent PNGs, engine-ready
Every character comes out with the background already removed. Import it straight into Godot, Unity, GameMaker, Phaser, LÖVE or Construct and set the texture filter to nearest for crisp edges.
Sizes that match your game
Generate characters at 16, 32, 64, 128 or 256 pixels square — from GBA-era sprites to hi-res hero portraits — with multiple variations per prompt so you can pick the best take.
Animate them
Turn any character into a sprite sheet with 11 presets — idle, walk, run, attack, cast and more — or a custom motion. Characters and animations can be used in commercial games without attribution.
Frequently asked questions
How much does it cost?
Plans start at $8/month for 800 credits — one per image, five per animation, so about 160 animations a month. Legendary is $20/month for 2,000. A small daily allowance lets you try the generator first.
What kinds of characters can it generate?
Any character you can describe in text: heroes, knights, wizards, archers, rogues, monsters, animals, villagers and NPCs. The model is tuned for full-body game characters with readable silhouettes.
Do the characters have transparent backgrounds?
Yes. Every character is delivered as a PNG with the background automatically removed, so it drops into your scene with no manual masking.
What sizes can it generate?
16, 32, 64, 128 and 256 pixels square, with 128×128 as the default — matching everything from retro-era sprites to modern indie resolutions.
Can I use the characters in a commercial game?
Yes. Characters generated on pixler.dev can be used in commercial games and products without attribution.
Can it animate the characters?
Yes — generate a character, then animate it into a sprite sheet with one of 11 presets (idle, walk, run, attack and more) or a custom text motion. See the pixel art animation generator.
How do I keep characters in a consistent style?
Lock a palette and a style, then save them as a project — every new character is drawn into the same look. Reference images help match characters you already have, and several variations per prompt let you pick the closest take.
