MetaData Tool

The MetaData Tool helps you to add information to your assets.

Gif Processor

This is a little standalone tool that allows you to make png animation stripes from gif animations. The good thing here is that you can have gifs with all animations you want to have in one file and then export them to pngs and anim timing files including proper naming in one go.

Image Processor

The image processor is a tool we developed to help the artist to export and name the objects in the game in a far more efficient way then by hand.

This tool works excellent together with PyxelEdit.
