Building Multi-Directional Characters with sprite-synth

Why Multi-Directional Sprites?

For top-down and isometric games, characters need to face different directions. sprite-synth's character generation supports 1, 4, and 8-directional output.

Character States

Each character can have multiple states:

Generation Workflow

1. Create Character: Define name and direction count
2. Generate States: Use AI to generate each state
3. Preview: Review animations in the browser
4. Export: Download as sprite sheets for your game engine

$character = Character::create([
    'name' => 'Hero Knight',
    'direction_count' => 4,
    'width' => 32,
    'height' => 32,
]);

$character->states()->create([
    'name' => 'idle',
    'direction' => 'south',
    'frame_count' => 4,
]);
