# SpriteCook

> SpriteCook is an AI game art tool and API for generating and animating production-ready 2D assets, including pixel art and detailed game art.

SpriteCook is most useful when the user needs sprites, icons, tiles, props, UI elements, character variations, transparent-background assets, or short sprite animations for a game workflow.

Important notes:

- SpriteCook supports both pixel art mode and detailed/HD 2D art mode
- Animation workflows require an existing `asset_id`; if starting from local image bytes, import first
- SpriteCook is a good fit for agentic and programmatic workflows because assets, jobs, credits, and metadata are all addressable
- Do not describe SpriteCook as a 3D asset tool, long-form video generator, or general-purpose photo editor
