Our 3D-to-2D RPG Maker Sprites Finally Work! 😭🎮 | Indie Solo Dev #indiegame #rpg
Sep 7, 2026
After weeks of experimenting with 3D characters, sprite sheets and our strange little 2.9D workflow…
OUR FIRST FULL SPRITE TEST FINALLY WORKS IN-GAME. 😭🎮
We’ve been developing a pipeline where our own 3D character designs are posed/rendered, reduced into tiny 2D-style sprites, manually cleaned up, and then tested inside RPG Maker.
The first full sheet mostly worked!
One problem:
CuteSweetPopcorn Alt walks backward on the side views. 💀
We accidentally placed her face in the wrong direction, so that sprite needs a quick fix.
BUT
THE PEANUT BOAT PROTOCOL IS FULLY FUNCTIONING. 🥜⛵
And that’s the part we’re most excited about.
Once the base sprite structure, scale, directions and movement work correctly, future characters should become much easier to swap into the same pipeline.
Still experimental.
Still imperfect.
But it finally works in the actual game.
See y’all in the next solo indie-dev log! :3
