Fix damaged animation frames by applying frame cleanup and recovery to repair partially missing or inconsistent character art before packing them into a stable spritesheet. This ensures reliable in-browser slicing and consistent motion.

Spritesheet drift and cropping issues occur when canvas size, pivots, and body positions lack normalization across frames. Running spritesheet QA catches these slicing and bleeding errors before in-game use, ensuring stable fixed-cell alignment.

Normalize canvas size, transparency, and body positions across character frames during the asset pipeline. This normalization aligns every frame's pivot point to ensure the animation plays consistently when sliced in-browser.

Pack character frames into a fixed-cell spritesheet by curating the frames, normalizing the canvas and pivots, and validating the preview to ensure reliable in-game slicing. This handles idle, walk, talk, and other non-combat animations.

This spritesheet pipeline does not support combat animations. It is designed for non-combat animation tasks including idle, walk, talk, thinking, pointing, interacting, success, and failure sequences for browser-game character art.

Validate spritesheet slicing by running preview validation after packing frames into fixed cells. This QA step catches drift, cropping, and bleeding issues early, ensuring the character asset is reliable for browser-game use.
