Overview

Recraft is an AI design tool specializing in vector and SVG output — rare in AI image generation. Indie game developers use it to generate inventory icons, map markers, HUD elements, and button sets with locked color palettes and consistent flat/vector styles. Unlike raster-only tools, Recraft outputs clean SVG that scales to any resolution without quality loss.

Best For

  • Game UI designers who need consistent icon sets with exact color palettes
  • Developers generating map markers, status icons, and HUD elements at scale
  • Teams needing SVG output for Godot (which has native SVG support)
