Best AI tools for indie game devs: art & 3d assets

Generate props, characters and textures. Read the license line on each pick: some free tiers are non-commercial, which matters the moment you sell your game.

Meshy

Meshy

Best for Props and characters from text or an image, rigged if needed

Text or image to 3D with texturing, auto-rigging and an animation library. Its free tier is unusually usable for a shipping game: assets are CC BY 4.0, so commercial use is allowed if you credit Meshy. Paid plans make assets fully yours.

Price
Free 100 credits/mo (CC BY 4.0). Pro $20/mo
Works with
Unreal, Unity, Godot, Blender, Roblox

Tripo

Tripo AI

Best for High volume of game-ready meshes with part segmentation

Fast generation with smart segmentation and retopology, plus an Unreal bridge. Watch the license: free-tier models are public and non-commercial, so anything you plan to ship needs a paid plan.

Price
Free 200 credits (non-commercial). Pro $20/mo billed yearly
Works with
Unreal, Unity, Godot, Blender, Maya

Scenario

Scenario

Best for Keeping generated art consistent with your game's style

Price
Starter $15/mo. Pro $45/mo for custom training
