How Krida Studio works.

Krida Studio runs entirely in the browser. You need an account, an idea (or a blank scene), and about a minute.

Create an account

Sign in with email and a one-time code, or continue with Google. There is no password to manage — the code lands in your inbox and drops you into the dashboard.

Start a project

From the dashboard, choose New project. You can:

• Prompt an idea (“a one-button endless runner with pixel birds”)
• Start blank and build scene by scene

Either way you land in the Studio with a project you can play immediately.

Play and iterate

Hit Play to test in the editor. Adjust sprites, behavior, and layout, then play again. Version checkpoints let you roll back if an experiment goes sideways.

Share a build

When it feels right, publish a play link and send it to playtesters. You control whether the project stays private, unlisted, or public.

Next steps

• Building in Studio — scenes, assets, and logic
• Publishing — share, export, and domains
• Pricing — free limits and when to upgrade

Your dashboard is the home base for everything you’re building.

What lives on the dashboard

• Stats — project count, builds, plays, and storage at a glance
• Projects — drafts, live games, and archived builds, filterable by status
• Activity — recent builds and edits
• Usage — plan limits for generations, storage, and domains

Project statuses

Session

Sign-in writes a mock session for this prototype. Sign out from the user menu clears it and returns you to auth. Real auth ships with the Worker API.

Naming and organizing

Rename projects from the card actions. Keep names short and specific — you’ll thank yourself when the list grows past a dozen games.

The Studio is a visual workspace for 2D games. Everything the generator produces is a normal project you can open, restructure, and refine.

Prompt flow

Describe the game you want in plain language. Krida sketches scenes, sprites, and core loop. Treat the first pass as a sketch — edit freely afterward.

Good prompts name:

• Genre — platformer, top-down, puzzle, arcade
• Feel — chill, frantic, precise, chaotic
• One twist — “double jump but the second jump is a grapple”

Scenes and entities

Scenes hold entities (player, enemies, props, UI). Toggle visibility, nudge transforms, and wire behavior without leaving the canvas.

Assets

Generated art and audio sit in the project library. On paid plans you can import your own sprites, tilesets, and sounds and wire them the same way.

Behavior

Attach simple behaviors (move, chase, collect, spawn) or open the logic panel for custom rules. Code is optional — the visual path covers most prototypes.

Version history

Checkpoints save as you work. Roll back a bad change, then branch forward again. Longer history and named saves unlock on Pro and Studio.

When a build is ready, get it in front of players — on your terms.

Play links

Every build gets a URL you can send to playtesters. Visibility controls:

• Private — only you
• Unlisted — anyone with the link
• Public — listed where allowed on your plan

Who owns your games

You do. Free lets you share plays of your work. Pro and Studio add commercial publishing and the option to remove Krida branding.

Exports

Web export ships first on Pro and Studio. More targets land on the roadmap. Free keeps play-and-share inside Krida.

Custom domains

Point DNS at Krida on Pro or Studio. HTTPS is handled for you — no cert babysitting.

Branding

Free builds show a small Krida mark. Paid plans can remove it so the game feels like yours alone.

Start free. Upgrade when you need higher limits, exports, or a team.

What’s on each plan

• Free — account, monthly build allowance, play-and-share links
• Pro — higher limits, exports, custom domain, no Krida branding
• Studio — seats, shared libraries, roles, SSO, priority support

Full feature matrix lives on pricing.

Trial

New accounts get a 7-day Pro trial — no card. If you don’t upgrade, you drop to Free and keep your projects.

Hitting free limits

Editing, playing, and sharing continue. New generations pause until the next month or until you upgrade.

Yearly billing

Yearly bills once per year at 20% off monthly. Cancel anytime; access runs through the paid period.

Changes and cancels

Manage plans from billing settings. Upgrades apply immediately; downgrades wait for the next renewal so you don’t lose paid time.

Sign-in

Email + one-time code, or Google. Codes expire quickly; request a new one from the auth screen if you miss the window.

Teams

Studio seats scale with your team. Shared libraries and roles keep assets and permissions in one place. SSO (SAML) is available on Studio.

Education

Students and educators can email support for a verified discount on Pro and Studio.
