CraftPix vs FanRealms

CraftPix is a web-based catalog for finding 2D game art, with free downloads and paid assets. Its range includes sprites, characters, animated objects and enemies, backgrounds, tilesets, interface elements, isometric art, pixel art, game kits, 3D models and text effects. Game developers, indie studios and hobbyists are its stated audience. Assets can be integrated into Unity, Unreal Engine, Buildbox, Construct 2 and GameSalad. Freebie assets may be modified and used in personal or commercial projects without attribution. Purchased assets can be used in unlimited free and commercial projects without royalties, and remain usable after a subscription ends. The license bars redistributing source art, including slightly altered versions, so another end user can use it; it also bars using licensed art or derivatives to train, test, validate or improve AI systems. CraftPix lists a free plan and paid options from $4.50. Memberships include unlimited downloads, with higher-priority support listed for members.

FanRealms is a web marketplace and community for indie game creators, built with Godot creators in mind but open to everyone. Members can join free and browse or download assets at no cost. Listings can include sprites, tilesets, shaders, plugins, UI kits, fonts, animations, 3D models, music, sound effects, templates, and complete projects for any engine. Creators upload asset packs for sale, choose a platform fee from 1% to 5% per sale, and pay no monthly or listing fees; the default fee is 5%. Stripe handles payment processing, with a stated fee of about 2.9% + 30¢, and Stripe Connect sends creator earnings automatically to a bank. FanRealms also lists indie games, jobs and gigs for developers, artists, and designers, plus a forum and devlogs. Creators retain ownership and can delete listings. Digital products are usually final sale, though broken or inaccurately described items may receive case-by-case refunds. Payments are secured by Stripe.
