Create infinite animated pixel Feudal Japanese characters with 2D Infinite Character Forge – a Procedural pixel character generator and animator.2D Infinite Character Forge – Shogun Edition generates endless pixel-art characters of feudal Japan in Unity. Samurai in laced armour, ashigaru under banners, ronin, shinobi, warrior monks, shrine maidens, court nobles, oni and tengu are all drawn by code from editable parameters, with every animation included. No sprite sheets, no AI service, no online connection.Fully customizableEvery character is plain, editable data. Pick a race and a seed, then change anything: anatomy, face, hair, outfit, equipment, colours, gear quality, zombie or spirit form. Changes redraw instantly in the editor window and at runtime through a simple C# API. Save characters as presets or JSON, export PNGs, or create editable or baked animated prefabs.
