In their own words
CraftPix
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.
Kenney Assets
Kenney Assets is a downloadable library of game-development materials, including 2D sprites, 3D models, UI elements, audio, fonts, pixel art, and textures. Individual packs are free to download, while the Kenney Game Assets All-in-1 bundle is a one-time purchase at a minimum price of 19.95 USD. The bundle lists more than 60,000 assets, including over 1,200 sound effects and music loops, plus bitmap and vector fonts. Asset packs use a CC0 public-domain license, which permits commercial projects without requiring attribution. Listed formats include PNG, SVG, OBJ, FBX, GLTF, and OGG, described as compatible with all game engines. An optional launcher for Windows and Linux includes tools for tile extraction and combination, converting files and images, PNG compression, audio processing, and store-thumbnail creation. New packs are added frequently, and updates are free for existing bundle owners. Kenney does not support importing assets into specific game engines, directing users instead to its knowledge base or the engine's documentation and community.
