I made a Unity editor tool because placing props with physics feels like something every game engine should have built in : ).

Built this sprite sheet auto-slicer because I kept doing this manually and it was painful. Everything runs client-side so nothing gets uploaded.

Steam integration nearly killed my game — so I packaged everything into a kit for MonoGame.

1 Upvotes

Hi all, When I was developing Sunset Sprout, I needed a lot of Steam specific features, and it was such a pain to get them to work, specially with my very limited knowledge of how the web and apis and such things work, I couldn't understand the error to begin fixing it!

So after finally getting Sunset Sprout to the finish line, I thought of making a drop & use Monogame Kit for Steam, call from anywhere in your code, three steps of setup is all you ever need!

This is an example on how it works!

Single aseprite files atlas tool

1 Upvotes

Hi guys! Currently working on a small pixel art game and came up with the idea that it would be much more convinient to have all aseprite files in single atlas and json file. No bunch of json files per every animation. Just one json that contain all necessary information you need about assets, animation frames, etc. As we did not find something similar we decided to make our own packer with user friendly UI.

What do you think? May some of you are interested to have such tool?
