Can I separate every object into editable layers at once?

The generated asset sheet is split into separate transparent PNGs using its alpha channel. Automatic mode aims to extract as many clear reusable elements as the resolution allows. Click and box selection support up to 32 selections. Touching objects may stay grouped and disconnected parts may separate. Layered PSD export and complete object detection are not guaranteed.

Which image formats and upload sizes does extraction support?

Use PNG, JPEG or WebP up to 15 MB. Images must contain between 262,144 and 36,000,000 total pixels; those limits are pixel counts, not required square dimensions. Large uploads may be compressed before processing. A clearly visible object with distinct edges gives you a more useful result to inspect.

How is scene extraction different from ordinary background removal?

Scene extraction isolates reusable objects from a scene using automatic, click or box selection. It generates an asset sheet and splits transparent regions into separate PNGs. AI may re-render edges and obscured details, so unchanged pixels and exact restoration are not guaranteed.

How many credits does one asset extraction currently cost?

2K costs 4 credits per submission and 4K costs 10 credits, including automatic splitting. Automatic mode defaults to 4K; click and box modes default to 2K for up to 6 selections and 4K for 7 or more. You can override the resolution. Failed generation tasks follow the existing refund flow. Download access depends on your account and plan.

Can I extract assets from artwork for a commercial game?

Use images you own or have permission to process and reuse. Extraction does not grant rights to someone else’s artwork. In click and box modes, the original and marked image are sent to an AI image service. Review the service terms, privacy policy and source license before commercial use.

Are extracted PNGs ready to import into Unity or Godot?

The transparent PNG format can be imported by common 2D game engines. You still need to check image quality, resize for your project and set the pivot, filtering and collision where needed. The output does not include animation frames, collision shapes, tile metadata or a fixed pixel grid.

Is this scene extractor part of the Layer AI platform?

This is Sprite Flow’s Scene Asset Extraction tool, a separate product from Layer AI. Here, layering AI game assets means extracting an object from a source image for reuse as a PNG. For this task, compare the source-to-result examples and output format rather than assuming the two products have the same features.

Scene Asset Extraction by Sprite Flow

Layer AI Game Assets from a Single Image

Extract buildings, vehicles, characters and props from a scene. Choose automatic, click or box selection, then inspect each transparent asset on the right.

AI may redraw details. Touching objects can stay grouped; disconnected parts can split. Check each asset before reuse.

Drag the divider to explore the background-cleanup experiment. The example below shows a separately extracted foreground object. AI may redraw details; review each result before using it in your game.

Extract game assets for these 2D workflows

Use your own scene art as the starting point for reusable props, scenery and prototypes.

RPG scenery from concept art

An environment concept may contain the tree or rock your level needs. Select that one object, review the extracted PNG and set its scale and pivot in your editor before placing it as scenery.

Room props for cozy games

Turn a visible chair, table or cabinet from a room illustration into an independent prop. Inspect overlaps carefully: the model may reconstruct hidden edges instead of recovering original pixels.

Map objects for early prototypes

Extract a building from a village image to test its position in a map mockup. The PNG gives you a movable object; collision, tile dimensions and engine setup remain part of your project.

Extract a scene asset in 3 steps

Choose a scene, select objects and resolution, then inspect the separated transparent assets.

Upload or choose a scene

Use a PNG, JPEG or WebP or pick a scene from your asset library. Start with a clearly visible object and enough detail to judge its shape.

Source scene

Choose selection and resolution

Let automatic mode find reusable objects, click individual targets or drag boxes around them. Choose 2K for 4 credits or 4K for 10 credits.

Selected area

Extract, inspect and reuse

Generate an asset sheet, then automatically separate its transparent regions into individual PNGs. Completed assets are saved to your library.

Choose scene objects for transparent assets

Use automatic, click or box selection, then inspect the separated PNGs.

AutomaticClick to select

Example preview

Let automatic mode select the main objects

Automatic mode searches the whole scene for reusable buildings, vehicles, characters, plants and small props. It defaults to 4K to fit more detail; the result depends on the scene.

AutomaticClick to select

Example preview

Click objects or drag selection boxes

Place up to 32 click markers or drag up to 32 boxes. The original and marked image guide extraction without a written description. Remove any selection before submitting.

Inspect each transparent asset

Transparent gaps separate the generated sheet into individual PNGs, centered in square previews. Touching objects may remain grouped. Compare edges and details before reuse.

Return to results through your asset library

Completed extractions are saved as assets, and task history lets you reopen a submitted job. Keep the source and result together while deciding which objects need cleanup or another attempt.

A focused workflow for reusing existing scene art

The controls and examples make it easier to decide whether an extraction is useful for your project.

Start from your existing image

Upload one scene or choose it from your asset library. You can target an object already present in your artwork without generating a new full scene.

Choose a mode and extract

Automatic mode finds reusable objects throughout the scene. Click individual objects or draw selection boxes to specify your own targets.

Know the cost before submitting

2K costs 4 credits per submission; 4K costs 10 credits. Selection and automatic splitting have no additional charge. The total is shown before you submit.

Keep a standard image format

The output is a transparent PNG. After cleanup and sizing, you can import it through the normal image workflow in Unity, Godot or another 2D editor.

Continue in the same workspace

Use task history to reopen submitted work and the asset library to organize completed results. You can return to the source image when another prop needs extracting.

Layer AI game assets from your own scene

Choose a scene you have permission to use, select automatically or mark targets with clicks or boxes, then inspect the transparent assets.

Scene asset extraction questions

Formats, costs, output limits and the difference between extraction and generation.

Upload a scene in Sprite Flow. Choose automatic, click or box selection and a 2K or 4K output. AI arranges extracted objects with transparent gaps, then the tool separates those regions into PNG assets. Review the results because AI may alter contours or textures.
