AI Animation Generator

Create smooth, loopable game animations from a single image or text prompt. Walk cycles, attacks, idle breathing, custom actions. Game-engine ready in seconds.

Image to motion

Turn any image into motion

Upload an existing sprite or generate one with AI. Then describe the animation you want and watch it come to life.

Loops that land, alpha that stays clean

Seamless Loops for Game Engines

Every animation is generated to loop seamlessly — the last frame transitions naturally back to the first. Perfect for idle animations, walk cycles, and ambient effects.

  • Play on repeat without visible jumps
  • Proportions, style, and colors stay consistent in every frame

Transparency Preserved Through Every Frame

Start with a transparent-background image and the animation maintains that transparency throughout, ready to composite over any game background.

  • Chroma-key pipeline keeps alpha clean in every frame
  • Export directly as a sprite sheet for your game engine
Capabilities

What you can animate

Walk Cycles

8-directional locomotion for characters, NPCs, and enemies

Attacks

Sword swings, magic casts, ranged shots, and combo sequences

Idle & Breathing

Subtle motion for characters standing still, hovering, or floating

Effects & VFX

Flames, explosions, sparkles, smoke, and environmental particles

Custom Actions

Describe any motion in natural language and the AI creates it

The workbench

True motion, not tweening

This is not puppet-style animation that just moves parts around. The AI generates true frame-by-frame motion where the character actually deforms, rotates, and moves naturally.

Cloth flows Limbs bend Particles scatter

Every frame is a complete re-render with coherent physics and form. The result looks hand-animated, not programmatically warped.

Review in the Animation Editor

Once your animation is generated, review it in the built-in video editor. Scrub through frames, check the loop point, adjust playback speed, and preview exactly how it will look in-game before exporting.

Trim the start and end to get the timing exactly right

Export directly to a sprite sheet. No need to download, open in another tool, and re-import

Integrations

Fits into your workflow

Use the web studio for a visual experience, or generate animations programmatically. The REST API and MCP integration let you create animations directly from Cursor, VS Code, or Claude without leaving your editor.

Web Studio

Visual interface with real-time preview and one-click export

REST API

Programmatic generation for CI/CD pipelines and batch workflows

MCP Integration

Generate from Cursor, VS Code, Claude Desktop, and any MCP client

Part of the full pipeline

Animation is the middle step. Start from artwork, animate it, then export as a sprite sheet.
