RetroRender - Recreate the iconic look of the games of yesteryear with pre-rendered and animated sprites generated from YOUR models completely within the engine!

Harkening back to a simpler time when computers couldn't handle realtime 3D rendering, it would be hard to deny the pre-rendered look of gaming history has a certain charm to it.

RetroRender is a fully capable tool for generating such pre-rendered sprites from models in the scene at the click of a button!

The specified model(s) will be rendered in a user-configurable number of directions. All renders are then saved into a texture sprite sheet for efficiency.

RetroRender also supports rendering animations at a user-configurable framerate. All frames of rendered animations are saved into unique spritesheets, and animation clips for swapping the sprite at each frame are created.
