20 to 50 Steps

:PATH
Setup Phase
Install AUTOMATIC1111 or ComfyUI. Download a pixel art or flat illustration LoRA that matches your target game aesthetic.

:PATH
Generate Sprites
Use a consistent prompt template with your character or object description. Generate batches of 10 and select the best candidates.

:PATH
Tile Sets
Generate tiling textures using seamless tile checkboxes or dedicated tiling ControlNet workflows. Test in engine before committing.

:CHECKLIST
Game Asset Pipeline Checklist
[ ] Define art style and color palette
[ ] Set up AUTOMATIC1111 or ComfyUI
[ ] Download relevant LoRA or checkpoint model
[ ] Build prompt template for asset type
[ ] Generate sprite sheet candidates
[ ] Remove backgrounds with Remove.bg or rembg
[ ] Import and test in game engine
[ ] Iterate on prompt for style consistency

:NOTE
Consistency across a game art style is the hardest problem. Build a seed and prompt template you lock in early, then use the same base for every asset type. Changing models mid-project breaks visual cohesion.
