Creating great games on an iPad has never been easier—or more exciting. With hyperPad, you can build professional-quality iOS games without writing a single line of code. And now, thanks to tools like PixelLab AI, bringing your creative vision to life just got a huge upgrade.

‍

In this blog, we’ll show you how hyperPad users can use PixelLab AI to create stunning pixel art assets, speed up their workflow, and elevate their game development—all directly from an iPad.

‍

What Is PixelLab AI?

PixelLab AI is a cutting-edge web tool that uses artificial intelligence to help you generate, refine, and upscale pixel art. Whether you need characters, items, backgrounds, or animations, PixelLab AI lets you create high-quality pixel visuals with ease—making it a perfect companion for hyperPad game developers.

Why PixelLab AI + hyperPad Is a Game-Changer

hyperPad gives you the power to design and build games visually on iPad. But making great art—especially pixel art—can take time and skill. With PixelLab AI, you can:

• Create custom sprites in seconds
  
  
• Convert sketches or concepts into polished game-ready art
  
  
• Upscale pixel art without losing detail
  
  
• Export spritesheets or single-frame images ready to import into hyperPad
  
  

This means you can spend more time focusing on gameplay, story, and mechanics—while still having beautiful visuals that match your vision.

How to Use PixelLab AI with hyperPad

Here’s a quick guide to get started:

1. Open PixelLab AI on Your iPad

Visit pixellab.ai in Safari or your preferred browser. No need for downloads or desktop apps.

‍

2. Generate or Upload Pixel Art

You can:

• Type a prompt like “cyberpunk cat character, 32x32 pixel art” to generate assets
  
  
• Upload your own sketches or pixel art for cleanup or improvement
  
  

‍

3. Refine Your Design

Use PixelLab’s AI-assisted tools to adjust colors, details, or size. You can even animate characters using frame generation tools.

‍

4. Export as PNG or Spritesheet

Once your art is ready, export it in the format best suited for hyperPad. We recommend transparent PNGs for single assets or spritesheets for animations.

‍

5. Import into hyperPad

In hyperPad, use the Asset Import tool to bring your artwork directly into your game project. Add behaviors, collisions, and animations—all with no code.
