Best Practices

Sprite Art

• Specify exact dimensions: Always include pixel dimensions (32×32, 64×64)
• Mention transparency: Request transparent background for game integration
• Define view angle: Side view, top-down, isometric, front-facing
• Art style clarity: Pixel art, hand-painted, vector, retro 8-bit/16-bit

Textures

• Request seamless: Always specify “seamless tileable” for repeating textures
• Power of 2 sizes: Use 256, 512, 1024 for optimal GPU performance
• Material specifics: Describe wear, weathering, age, condition

Icon Sets

• Use session_id: Maintain consistent style across multiple icons
• Grid arrangement: Request organized layouts for sprite sheets
• Consistent lighting: Specify light direction for cohesive sets

UI Elements

• Leave safe zones: Account for text and dynamic content
• Scalability: Consider how assets scale on different resolutions
• State variations: Request normal, hover, pressed states for buttons

Mode Selection

Ask your users before generating:

“Do you want fast & cheap, or high quality?”

Multi-Turn Asset Iteration

Use session_id to iterate and create consistent asset sets:

# Initial character design
curl -X POST https://sense.eachlabs.run/chat \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "X-API-Key: $EACHLABS_API_KEY" \
  -H "Accept: text/event-stream" \
  -d '{
    "message": "Create a pixel art hero character for a platformer game, 64x64, knight with red cape",
    "session_id": "hero-character-project"
  }'

# Request variations
curl -X POST https://sense.eachlabs.run/chat \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "X-API-Key: $EACHLABS_API_KEY" \
  -H "Accept: text/event-stream" \
  -d '{
    "message": "Create the same character but with a blue cape for player 2, matching style exactly",
    "session_id": "hero-character-project"
  }'

# Create matching enemy
curl -X POST https://sense.eachlabs.run/chat \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "X-API-Key: $EACHLABS_API_KEY" \
  -H "Accept: text/event-stream" \
  -d '{
    "message": "Create an enemy character in the same pixel art style - a skeleton warrior, same size and art direction",
    "session_id": "hero-character-project"
  }'

Batch Asset Generation

Generate multiple variations efficiently:

# Style A - Pixel Art
curl -X POST https://sense.eachlabs.run/chat \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "X-API-Key: $EACHLABS_API_KEY" \
  -H "Accept: text/event-stream" \
  -d '{
    "message": "Create a treasure chest icon, 32x32, pixel art, closed position",
    "mode": "eco"
  }'

# Style B - Hand-painted
curl -X POST https://sense.eachlabs.run/chat \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "X-API-Key: $EACHLABS_API_KEY" \
  -H "Accept: text/event-stream" \
  -d '{
    "message": "Create a treasure chest icon, 64x64, hand-painted fantasy style, closed position",
    "mode": "eco"
  }'

# Style C - Modern Vector
curl -X POST https://sense.eachlabs.run/chat \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "X-API-Key: $EACHLABS_API_KEY" \
  -H "Accept: text/event-stream" \
  -d '{
    "message": "Create a treasure chest icon, 128x128, clean vector style with gradients, modern mobile game look",
    "mode": "eco"
  }'

Error Handling

Prompt Tips for Game Assets

When creating game art, include these details in your prompt:

1. Dimensions: Exact pixel size (32×32, 512×512)
2. Art Style: Pixel art, hand-painted, vector, retro, modern
3. Perspective: Side view, top-down, isometric, 3/4 view
4. Background: Transparent, solid color, or contextual
5. Color Palette: Limited palette, vibrant, muted, specific colors
6. Game Genre: RPG, platformer, shooter, puzzle – affects style expectations
7. Reference Style: “Like Stardew Valley”, “Zelda-inspired”, etc.

Example Prompt Structure

"Create a [dimensions] [art style] [asset type] for a [game genre].
[Visual description with colors, materials, details].
[Perspective/view angle]. [Background requirement].
[Additional technical requirements]."
