Ship Mixer — SHMUP Style Sprite Creator From Kenney.nl

Kenney of Kenney.nl fame has released another tool, Ship Mixer. ShipMixer is a browser based application that enables you to quickly kit bash together SHMUP style jets and airplanes by mixing and matching different shapes of different colours. There is also Creature Mixer, we did a video on when it was first released, which is used to create platformer style sprites.

Both Ship Mixer and Creature Mixer are free to use for free and commercial projects, with one major caveat, NFTs. You cannot use either tool for creating NFTs, also known as Non-Fungable Tokens. Directly from the license:

Both tools run in your browser and are hosted on Itch.io.
