Tile Artist
Generates tiles.png and tile metadata. GPT Image 2 is the default — one API call per non-SKY tile, each generated at 512×512 then downscaled to 32×32. Falls back to procedural flat-color cells when FAL_KEY is unavailable.
Two modes
| Mode | When | Cost | Output |
|---|---|---|---|
| GPT Image 2 (default) | FAL_KEY present |
~$0.01–0.05 per tile at low quality |
Real pixel-art textures (cobblestone, brick mortar, grass blades, etc.) |
| Procedural fallback | No API key | Free | Flat-colored cells with a subtle 1-pixel darker border |
Both produce identical manifest entries — downstream Preload and Game.js are unaware which was used.
When to use
After game-designer produces a GDD with tilesetPalette. Runs in parallel with sprite-artist and bg-artist.
