EDIT: Just noticed the dev logs - will look at those :)
seriously impressive work - I wanted to try do something similar but find dealing with shaders very difficult - don't suppose you have any advice on learning what's required to do something like this?
I'm an engineer so understand the fundamentals just cannae ken shaders
Thank for the suggestion, but this program is really about procedural generation. There's almost certain a lot of custom moon and other planet sprites on itch and other sites
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.

Thanks for these! they are great!
This is awesome. Using it for the Indie Galactic Space Jam 2024.
Nice, glad you like it and well done on making a game!
This is so cool, i wish i had a use for it haha
Haha, glad you enjoy. Just enjoying looking at it is also a good use
I call this planet Oeie :>
add more galaxy shapes!
Any suggestions? You can also adjust a lot more of the shapes and properties of planets and galaxies by using the source in godot.
I used it to make a few planets for my menu: https://iamsul.itch.io/starshooter
Its freaking awesome thanks!
Wow, amazing game! I love the retro look and feel of it, and a lot of fun to play also. Awesome job!
Looks amazing! Would you mind sharing some technical details? Is it using geometry? What procedural generation techniques did you use?
Thanks! This is using only a fragment/pixel shader to generate the planets, using a form of fractal brownian motion to generate noise.
I made a post on reddit some time ago that goes into a lot more detail in how the generator is built up, which you can find here: https://www.reddit.com/r/godot/comments/mobhb5
Unreal! Absolutely love it. Plans to make similar generators in the future?
Thank you! Glad you like it. I have some ideas for other generators but just need to find some time to actually make those.
this is so sick. great job
Thank you, glad you like it
i wanna see custom made moons n stuff
Thank for the suggestion, but this program is really about procedural generation. There's almost certain a lot of custom moon and other planet sprites on itch and other sites
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.
Aww, though I wanted a nice Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter & Saturn, Uranus & Neptune :( I’m also making a game, 2D Space Engine. Bye :D
Oh, that sounds awesome! Would love to see that at some point
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!
