Hey, it’s a really cool tool you’ve created! What’s the license for the generated sprites? Am I allowed to use them in a complete game template and sell it on a marketplace like the Unity Asset Store? I’ll make sure to give proper credit if needed. Thanks!
Thank you, glad you like it. You own the sprites you generate, so feel free to do with that as you wish. Credit would definitely be appreciated if you want, and thank you for asking permission!
Thank you so much for clarifying! I really appreciate it. I’ll definitely give credit to you in the template to show my appreciation for the awesome tool. Thanks again for your work and for being so open about usage!
what i've been doing is downloading the png and importing into gamemaker. btw absolutely amazing program Deep-Fold, this has been a literal lifesaver for my project and you are going at the top of my credits.
id love to see a randomize all button which randomizes the colors, planet type, seed, and rotation. also where the rings can be their own color too. the game so far is amazing and id love to see more of it.
I thought you should know there's a bug when you export the black hole as a spritesheet or gif here on itch. The accretion disk wobbles back and forth for some reason when the frames are assembled. The hole is stationary completely but the accretion disk wobbles about some invisible axis.
The wobbling is something I intentionally left in the code at some point for some reason, but now that I look at it again, it looks a little silly. Thanks for mentioning, I'll probably remove it in a future update.
Awesome, glad it's useful! If you're on desktop you can change the light direction simply by holding down the mouse and moving the light where you want it.
Yeah lots of people have asked for earth already lol. I don't know if there is a seed out there that makes it look really earth-like, but I'm don't really plan on adding an earth shaped planet myself.
One of the most amazing tools on the site! Absolutely love this and the Space Background generator. I've used some images from them in my latest jam game, and it couldn't be easier with the way you set it up. Really fantastic work, thank you very much for putting it out there for everyone.
Hi :) Love this. I found it a year ago and keep coming back to mess around with it. I was just wondering if this can apply a texture onto a sphere or is it only for 2d?
It gives me inpiration to work on a game, and I'm reusing your planet scenes directly from a fork of your github repo, as I love the flexibility compared to just using sprite sheets. Thank you for sharing!
Your code is very clean, and it's easy to just instanciate a planet and benefit from its methods; but I noticed a thing that annoyed me: I don't know if it is intentional or not but Asteroid scene and NotAtmosphere scene have a 'custom_minimum_size' of (100,100) instead of (0,0) for the other scenes. No impact on your tool, but for people trying to generate several planets on a screen and resize them, it makes it harder to align correctly compared to the other scenes.
Another tiny thing that can help is also to set all shader materials 'local_to_scene' to allow several different planets of the same type on the screen. I did it programmatically (I hate the UI) within the _ready() func of planet.gd with:
'for c in get_children():
c.material.resource_local_to_scene = true'
Anyway, once more: Thank you for this tool, thank you for the github repo, I hope I will be able to share an exciting demo someday with you :)
Is there any way to generate more frames with higher resolution? Becasuse when i generate less than 60 frames, star rotates way too fast. Is there any feature to generate more frames, maybe by parts?
Do you mean for the spritesheet? At default resolution you can have thousands of frames. But yeah, if the pixel size is very large then the frames are limited by what the engine can handle.
There currently isn't a way to do an export in multiple parts, but if you need a lot of frames in a high resolution, I recommend just using the shaders directly.
Thank you, glad you like it so much! There might be a seed out there that makes it look roughly like earth, although I haven't found it yet, who knows.

i wanna see custom made moons n stuff
This is one of the coolest art generation tools I've come across. Will definitely be using this and citing you in my spaceship building game!
Awesome, glad you like it and would love to see what you can do with it!

Hey, I made a game using your generator.
It's called Dr.Planet :D
Thank you, this helped a lot.
Awesome! Nice job on creating a game and getting it on Steam! Hope the launch is doing well and thanks for sharing.
Nice, can you make our Solar System as a pack with this exact theme?
Thanks, I'm not really planning on making a pack out of this, but feel free to generate whatever solar system stuff you need.
Can u make a port for Game Maker Studio 2 ??? Please
Thanks for the interest, but I don't know game maker studio at all, so that would be way too much work for me.
what i've been doing is downloading the png and importing into gamemaker. btw absolutely amazing program Deep-Fold, this has been a literal lifesaver for my project and you are going at the top of my credits.
Awesome to hear! Glad it's useful and hope you can make something nice with it.

Love this, it's delightful!

No problem! Once again, thank you for this amazing tool!
Can I export the planet as an HTML file and still keep its rotating effects?
I'm not sure what you mean exactly? A html file is just some text, while the exports only export as some image.
This is an amazing tool! I will be using this for some game assets and will make sure to include credit. Thank you!
Glad you like it! I hope it comes in useful, and thanks for the credit!
This is perfect for my space game project, I was wondering if there was a way to change or remove the light focus/direction on the planets.
Awesome, glad it's useful! If you're on desktop you can change the light direction simply by holding down the mouse and moving the light where you want it.
Damn, this is cool as hell, it would be nice if there was a setting with Earth in it though
Yeah lots of people have asked for earth already lol. I don't know if there is a seed out there that makes it look really earth-like, but I'm don't really plan on adding an earth shaped planet myself.
Super cool Asset!
Thank you!

Thank you! Nice job on making a game in such a short time, good luck in the votings!
Great tool, I'd love a way to change the rings on gas giant 2, or just add rings to different planets either way
Thanks! Yeah, that's a good suggestion, I'll probably add it in the next version.
Hi :) Love this. I found it a year ago and keep coming back to mess around with it. I was just wondering if this can apply a texture onto a sphere or is it only for 2d?
Hi, glad you like it. It's purely a 2d project, so no 3d stuff unfortunately.
how do i find where i exported it. spritesheet wise
On the web it should just go to your downloads, if you use the downloaded program it should be in the same folder as the program.

Absolutely love this! Just used it for my latest video, and will definitely be coming back!
Nice! Glad the generator was helpful.
Trying to match the amazing aesthetic of the stars your generator can make is tricky, but I'm getting there :) Here's one of them with a ring world!
Wow, your game looks really cool! Love the UI and the ring. Good luck!
Simply wonderful. I kinda wish I was making a space game now :-D
I assume there is now way to make it resemble earth, right? (I mean with the approximate size, location and shape of the continents).
Thank you for sharing this in any case. I absolutely love the look of the planets this tool generates.
Thank you, glad you like it so much! There might be a seed out there that makes it look roughly like earth, although I haven't found it yet, who knows.
This is amazing... thank you for sharing with everyone!
Thank you! You're very welcome.
