@yuigoto/infiniship-js

Infiniship is a pixelated spaceship sprite generator, inspired by David Bollinger's "Pixel Spaceships".

The difference between the original Infiniship I wrote years ago, and this version is that the base pixel grid and some code has been changed, so it won't generate eventual copyrighted images Dave's script might've generated.

So feel free to use it without worries! 😉

How to

Install this library with:

npm install @yuigoto/infiniship-js

or

yarn add @yuigoto/infiniship-js

Then just import the main infiniship class and use it:

import Infiniship from "@yuigoto/infiniship-js";

const generator = new Infiniship();

// You can either generate an image with the sprite
document.body.append(generator.generateShipImage());

// Or just get the canvas `ImageData` object:
const spriteData = generator.generateShipImageData();
