Inochi Creator – tool to create and edit Inochi2D puppets

Inochi Creator is an editor for the Inochi2D puppet format.

This application allows you to rig models for use in games or for other real-time applications such as VTubing. Animation is achieved by morphing, transforming and in other ways distorting layered 2D textures in real-time. These distortions can trick the end user in to perceiving 3D depth in the 2D art.

Inochi Creator is nagware.

This is free and open source software.

Key Features

  • Export to PNG, JPEG and TARGA images. Export to video.
  • Import PDF and KRA.
  • Inochi2D natively supports multi-texturing for render passes, this means you can add special rendering effects to your model at low rendering cost, such as eyes that glow in the dark, make your model react to lighting in a scene and more.
  • Inochi2D is extensible.
  • Internationalization support
  • Cross-platform support – runs under Linux and Windows.
