Pixel Art to SVG

Client-side converter

Upload controls, route-specific examples, grid detection, greedy meshing, download, and copy actions hydrate in the browser. The SVG result appears only after a visitor uploads an image or tries the page example. The conversion runs locally with the canvas API.

Usage scenarios

Each case shows the source pixels, the SVG output structure, and the real use case so visitors can see why the result is different from a PNG preview.

Animation reference sheet

SVG output structure: viewBox plus grouped <path> geometry.

Use case: Show walk cycles, idle loops, and attack frames in docs or art reviews

Keep several frames together as one scalable SVG reference sheet without blurring frame edges.

3 frames

SVG output structure: one SVG viewBox spanning the whole strip, with each frame still block-aligned

Transparent VFX sheet

SVG output structure: viewBox plus grouped <path> geometry.

Use case: Export particles, hit sparks, pickups, and UI effects over any background

Empty cells stay transparent instead of becoming white boxes, so effects remain composable.

alpha skipped

SVG output structure: transparent cells skipped; repeated colors merged into compact paths

Asset catalog export

SVG output structure: viewBox plus grouped <path> geometry.

Use case: Publish inventory sheets, manual art, store pages, and engine references

Export clean sprite previews for manuals, wikis, asset catalogs, and handoff documents.

sheet output

SVG output structure: clean path output that scales inside pages without raster resampling

Sprite Sheet to SVG Converter

Drop a sprite sheet PNG or GIF into the converter and preserve every frame as pixel-perfect SVG rectangles. Nothing uploads, and transparent pixels stay transparent.

  • Converts whole sheets into one scalable SVG
  • Greedy meshing keeps repeated color areas compact
  • Manual grid size lets you match packed or cropped sprite sheets

Convert game sprites without smoothing the art

Sprite sheets need exact pixels. This converter samples the real grid cells, skips transparent cells, and emits square SVG paths instead of tracing curves.

Use it for game UI, sprite previews, documentation, stickers, posters, or any workflow where a raster sprite needs to scale cleanly.

If you need separate SVG files for each animation frame, crop or export the individual frame first, then convert each frame through the same tool.

Sprite sheet to SVG - FAQ

Answers for game-art and sheet conversion workflows.

How do I convert pixel art to SVG?

Drop a PNG or GIF onto the converter above. It detects the native pixel grid, turns every pixel block into an SVG rectangle, and merges same-colored blocks so the file stays small. Then download the SVG or copy the code. Everything runs in your browser.

Is my image uploaded to a server?

No. The whole conversion runs locally in your browser using the canvas API. Your image never leaves your device, so it works offline and keeps private art private.

Why not use a normal image vectorizer for pixel art?

General vectorizers like tracing tools smooth and round hard edges into curves, which destroys the crisp square look of pixel art. This tool keeps every pixel as an exact rectangle, so the SVG is a faithful, blocky vector copy.

Can I convert a Minecraft skin to SVG?

Yes. Minecraft skins are pixel art, so drop the skin PNG in and you get a clean SVG of the exact pixels — handy for stickers, decals, laser cutting, and print.

Does it work with sprite sheets?

Yes. A sprite sheet converts to one SVG that preserves every pixel. If you need individual sprites, crop the sheet first, then convert each frame.

What is greedy meshing and why does it matter?

Greedy meshing merges adjacent same-colored pixels into a single larger rectangle. Instead of thousands of 1x1 squares, you get far fewer rectangles, which makes the SVG dramatically smaller and faster to render — with identical visual output.
