All AI tools I've tried have failed to generate animations for slimes in my experiments. (Including Veo3) I'm hesitant to even try this, any chance it would work?

You're going to have a much harder time getting good animations generated for something that isn't a humanoid, since the training sets won't have much to work from. It's possible with a really good prompt for 'slime' you could get something but this doesn't seem to allow prompt customization. If you're after monsters like slimes I would not drop money on this.

Lol it's not functional for most things.

I uploaded a photo of a pixel art electrician and it just completely ruins it and looks nothing like my guy and forces it into a particular style where it looks like a cheap mobile game playable ad and somehow Mario at the same time. Not to mention, the actual animation is wrong too.

I always find it funny that people are up in arms about artists supposedly losing their jobs, but have no problems with doctors losing their jobs to AI advancements. Replace the people who actually contribute to society and no issues, but god forbid the pixel artist can't get paid to doodle anymore.

For health I want the best possible solution. If that ends up being AI, then screw humans.

I hate this. It's cool that it's possible, but I hate it. Generating art solves no real problem and only suppresses a struggling profession without which this wouldn't even be possible...

Have to agree. I don’t think we should stop ai progress, just that I think we built a bad thing along the way. I will never buy a video game that I know has ai generated content, I want to see some art, not a soulless prediction of what art might look like.

The problem is that in the indie game market, where most 2d sprites are drawn, there is not enough money going around making many studios profitable. By reducing cost of manual 2d animation, more studios can be profitable and able to deliver better, more finished, games. Then studios can pay decent salaries to employees.

Hmm The payment link does not require login And I paid and the credits vanished into thin air ... To the poster, please find the customer service to fix https://buy.stripe.com/cNicN59Bqf6K4q92Qrbwk00?prefilled_ema... Also, I cannot find my queuing job after closing the page.

sorry for the inconvenience. I've fixed it. ALso given your account 2x more credits.

Shouldn’t it be more like 5x credits? That’s what I would have given to a paying early adopter dealing with these annoying issues.
