Yup, you heard it right. No need to sell your soul or trade your firstborn child for access, just head over to https://www.pixelvibe.com/ai-game-assets and click "get started" to sign up. Be sure to let us know in the form that you are coming from Itch.io and we'll send you an access code this weekend.

You can create game characters, objects, and backgrounds on demand that are completely unique. Check out the examples we've created at https://www.pixelvibe.com/assets-gallery.

But wait, there's more! If you act now, we'll throw in a free set of steak knives...just kidding, we won't. But seriously, we're open to feedback and suggestions on how to make our generator even better. And we don’t want to leave the artists out, if you're looking to try it or even collab with us, just shoot me an email at lisha@rosebudai.com.

The boilerplate is a JavaScript based game template that takes care of all the annoying stuff like splash screen, start screen, credits screen, instructions screen, settings screen, menus, pixel styled UI, win/lose condition screens, sound effects, animations, etc. so you can get on with making the actual game.

I wanted to make sure this happened before the 7DRL jam so you can use it. Hopefully it gives you a head start on your game. Enjoy!
