I wonder if there is something similar but for creating isometric sprites? I burned through $30 yesterday realizing that I can't just get image gen to give me isometric static/animated sprites with consistency....even the best image gen cannot do this and im just baffled how difficult isometric sprite is compared to 3d mesh gen
I'm at a crossroad , do I opt for 3d mesh isometrics with more hardware requirements for mobile phones or stick to isometric sprite which nobody seems to be generating via AI reliably (happy to be corrected here if anybody does find a way)
I had a similar experience recently while helping my 5 year old daughter vibe code a sandcastle-themed tower defense game (https://sandcastles.finley.lol).
I ended up thinking it might be easier to generate rigged models, animate them, and capture from an iso perspective, then do some kind of pixel art style transfer on the masked sprite sheet. Eventually I realized my kid didn't really care too much about the visuals so I didn't get too far with it.
