AppGameKit Studio - The Animation Sheet Editor PC

Pack sprites into efficient sheets with AnimShed, a streamlined tool for 2D game developers. Load up to 500 images from folders using the built-in browser, then drag them into place to build sheets and create up to 200 animations. The interface relies on mouse controls for arranging, selecting groups by drawing, and resizing sheets on the fly, while automation handles adjustments during adds, deletes, or moves. Extract sprites from existing sheets in seconds, add borders, and save details for five folder locations without altering originals. Embedded help with search keeps workflows smooth. Game development pros building in AppGameKit Classic or Studio gain fast code integration, though the simple setup works for any 2D animation project.

The Animation Sheet Editor ( AnimShed ) is a dedicated, easy to use and powerful sprite sheet packer, allowing you to quickly compress a number of single images into one sprite sheet.

AnimShed is for anyone developing 2D animated games and is geared towards developing with both AppGameKit Classic and AppGameKit Studio by TheGameCreators. AnimShed has specific copy and paste functions so you can insert the code directly into your AppGameKit software proejcts. This doesn't stop you using the simple and quick interface to create Sprite sheets for other game creating software. Automation, ease of use and time saving features are the top features of AnimShed as many of the features that you would usually have to manually do with other packages are automated or very easy to implement. You can very easily adjust the size of the sprite sheet at any stage to take into account the size of sprites, adding/deleting and moving sprites, as well as other actions.
