Strange. I have never used the itch app, so I'm not really sure what that means. But also there isn't an android or iOS app for this, so if you're using your phone that might be why.
Yes, but it requires a little tinkering. You can use the scene files from the source code, and use the random functions in those to generate a random planet. Just set it up to do that on a scene load.
Not in this program. They are always in a 1x1 ratio for use in games with pixel art. But it's very easy to scale them up using basically any image editing program.
Amazing tool, thank you. Is there any way to export a gif with the same smooth rotation as in the editor? I want to use this in a html project, but the jagged animation looks kinda scuffed
Edit:
i just found the perfect gif in the changelog for gif export, what are the export settings for the red planet on the left?
Thank you! To get a smoother rotation you just have to use more frames. I don't remember what settings I used for that specific gif. If you want 60fps for example, you just have to use 60 times more frames than seconds.
As an example, with a 4 second gif you should use 240 frames. (Looks pretty close to that red planet gif.)
Is it possible to get a version that generates planets in the background, for example, by running the application with certain parameters from java code? The type of planet is indicated and both the seed and the color are randomized, finally export the file as a gif for example. I have no knowledge of GSLS or GDScript, sorry about that...
As far as I know, there isn't really a way to have Java directly communicate with Gdscript, so I don't think that's gonna work unfortunately. Best work around I can think of is to have a java application do button presses on the planet generator app.
I see. This is a Godot project, but perhaps you could use the shaders in Unity, not sure. Also there is a unity port that you can find in the description of the project.
Hi, I'm currently making a game in GameMaker, but I am not sure how to put the files into there since it's not GML. I tried watching videos on making GitHub repos, but I figured those would be useless in this case anyway. Please, if you know anyway to do this, like a GameMaker port of this, or if you think you can assist me, reply in the comments. Thanks :) (Also, I don't want the whole thing, I just want to be able to call a script which creates a spritesheet for a given planet type)
I'm not really aware of any way to convert an entire godot project to gamemaker. You're probably gonna have to manually remake the entire thing. However converting the shaders to gamemaker might be easier if that also works for you. I think gamemaker allows GLSL shaders, and these shaders are written in the godot version of GLSL.
Thanks for letting me know. I did not know that gamemaker supports GLSL shaders, nor am I sure of how to covert it, but I will look into it. Thanks once again, I love the work you do and games you make. (P.S, the game is infinitely generating, meaning if I didn't port this , I would have to download a lot of planets of each type by hand, which is why I was wondering)
I haven't used gamemaker, so I don't know myself how shaders work in that. But from some searching it looks like they do support glsl. Yeah I think if you want infinite planets, using the shaders directly is your best bet. That way you also have all the control over the shader settings and stuff. Glad you like my stuff, good luck with the game!
theoretically speaking, it should be possible with enough tweaking on the seed to make the land masses look similar. way too long to do it manually, let me know if you find a seed that looks like it, im curious too.
It's because the program is not well known enough to windows. If you want to run it anyway, click "more info" when smartscreen pops up. If you don't trust that, then just run it from the source. There is no background option in this generator, but I do have a space background generator if you want to use that.
Not specifically for stars, but this generator also has a star type it can generate. I also have a space background generator that has stars in the background, but at very low resolution.

I can't install it, it always gives me the following error "An error occurred during installation No manager for installer unknown"
I'm downloading it through the itch app
Strange. I have never used the itch app, so I'm not really sure what that means. But also there isn't an android or iOS app for this, so if you're using your phone that might be why.
Is there a way to attach this in a project and generate random planets from seeds everytime i load a scene in godot?
Yes, but it requires a little tinkering. You can use the scene files from the source code, and use the random functions in those to generate a random planet. Just set it up to do that on a scene load.
I'll give it a try, will share the source code if i could manage to make it work.
This is awesome! But how do I change the BG color?
Thank you! There is no background color or anything like that, the sprites all have a transparent background.
This is so incredibly amazing. I am quite new to coding but I hope to use this soon.
Thank you so much :)
Thank you, glad you enjoy! I hope it will be useful for you.
Spectacular. Thank you for making this - it's exactly what I needed.
Would it be possible to disable the lighting simulation somehow?
Nevermind! found my own answer - some of the colors are used as "lighting effects". Thank you for this amazing tool
Also, you can change/move the lighting with your mouse if you're on desktop.
I used this yet again on a game!

Amazing product. I've gotten quite a few people in my class to download.
That's awesome! Nice job on another game, and glad you came back for more. Cheers to everyone in your class lol.
cool, love it
Glad you like it!
Thank you! I’m using this generator in one of my games.
Awesome! Would love to see the game when it's done.
https://typealpha.itch.io/mergeplanets
I’ve released the game, hope you enjoy it
Nice job, I love suika. Fun game!
Really cool project! Well done.
Thank you!
could be great for a 4x/grand strategy game with procedural planets
That would be awesome! Could really have a basically infinite world that way.
I almost made Earth
Nice!

Hello there! I love your proejct! <3 is there a port for godot 4 avalible?
Hey, thank you! Not yet, but I'm working on it and it should be ready pretty soon.
I Think I Just Broke The Game
This is so damn cool! Kudos to you for creating it and giving it away for us to use it.
Thank you! You're very welcome, hope it's useful to you.

You actually inspired me enough to commit to making a game. These look astounding, love it!
Oh that's really awesome! Let me know how it goes, would love to see your game when you finish it.
thank you so much for this great software
You're welcome! Glad it can help.
Damn, this is awesome good work
Thanks! Glad you like it.
This is a masterpiece
Haha thanks. Glad you like it that much!
I agree. Great work Deep Fold.
Thank you!
Hello, I love this tool! I wanted to let you know that I'm using it in a console game I made: https://github.com/ricott1/rebels-in-the-sky (you are credited in the README :) )
Oh, I really like the idea of a console game, I'll definitely keep an eye out. Thanks for the credit and glad you like it!
That's really good
Glad you like it!
yes I wouod want to use it for Unity!
I see. This is a Godot project, but perhaps you could use the shaders in Unity, not sure. Also there is a unity port that you can find in the description of the project.
yes
this looks so good, i love the different options you can play around wit
Thank you!

Hey, does anyone here by any chance knows a seed that generates Earth (or as close to it as possible)?
theoretically speaking, it should be possible with enough tweaking on the seed to make the land masses look similar. way too long to do it manually, let me know if you find a seed that looks like it, im curious too.
Hi, I've been fiddling a bit with the generator and got this seed which I think is quite accurate:
1223478954
also the terrain type is islands, as the terrain type affects the seed
also, also the size i put was 128 for the 'pixels'
One of the best asset-generation tools I've ever seen!
That's a big compliment, thank you!
This is brilliant - thank you so much! Any plans to port/upgrade to godot 4?
Thank you! I'll look into it porting it sometime soon.
Hey! I used your generator to create some background images for my game. These are so stunning, thank you so much! You can check out my game here:

Awesome! Congrats on publishing a game, hope it does well!
This is legit awesome!
Thank you!
It looks amazing! Well done ☺️
Thanks! Glad you like how it looks.
Fabulous. Congratulations. Very good work.
Thank you!
Great tool! Thanks
Thanks, glad you like.
Phenomenal tool! My game simply wouldn't look right without it!
https://heyitsgus.itch.io/ufotto
Thanks. You made a really cool game! Especially like the movement and walljumps.
I LOVE GAME THIS
YOU THANK
This is great. I love this!
Thank you, glad you enjoy!
God… this is too helpful
Nice, glad it can help.
Couldn't install the program. Windows protected my laptop, why?
And how to export with background?
It's because the program is not well known enough to windows. If you want to run it anyway, click "more info" when smartscreen pops up. If you don't trust that, then just run it from the source.
There is no background option in this generator, but I do have a space background generator if you want to use that.
Happen to have made something similar but for stars?
Not specifically for stars, but this generator also has a star type it can generate. I also have a space background generator that has stars in the background, but at very low resolution.
