I am developing a game, and I want some assets for it. i was thinking of drawing some assets and then ask the “AI” to generate xyz based on my drawing style.
I was also considering just having a very specific prompt and using that to generate the assets I need.
I know there is a lot of skepticism about AI generated images, art etc. is there something I should know? Is it copyrighted? Can I use it as inspiration and make my own assets that are similar but not the same?
I am also just considering buying assets, but fear that it might not give me everything I need.
Any thoughts?
I mean, you can do whatever you want. But I would strongly recommend not using AI at all.
If you can’t draw (like me), then find an asset pack that’s close enough to what you want and do some minor edits to make it fit. Even a quick little doodle will have more heart and soul than an AI can ever try to poorly emulate.
Ever seen a game called “Thomas was Alone”? Every character is made of simple rectangles in different colours and sizes. You don’t need much.
This sounds like the best solution probably, I have played Thomas was Alone 😊
You can also use something like MagicaVoxel to make blocky 3D models which people can learn to use a heck of a lot faster than Blender etc, especially if they have played Minecraft before.
