What is in the test?
You import your own 3D model (GLB, glTF, VRM, OBJ or FBX). Then you can fix and paint it, add a skeleton, pose it, animate it with the studio's animations or your own keyframes, keep it in collections, and export it as a GLB file. Making models from words or images is coming later.
Do I need to know 3D?
A little helps. Rigami does the hard parts for you, such as placing the skeleton and the skin weights, and shows you each step. In the test you need a 3D model to start with.
What can I make?
Characters, creatures and props: a knight, a fox, an eagle, an airship, a sword. Characters can walk, run and wave. Creatures walk on four legs or flap their wings. Props can swing, wobble or spin.
Can I sell a game with what I make?
Yes. What you make in Rigami is yours. We claim no rights in it, and you may use it and sell it, for example in a game. Two things to know: you need the rights to what you import (if you import someone else's model, its licence still applies), and the animations and materials that come with the studio are free to use, also in paid work. Making models with AI is not part of the test yet; we will answer this question for AI-made models before that opens.
Where are my models kept?
Only in your browser, on your device. They are not sent to us, and we cannot see them. Clearing your browser's data deletes them, so use Download a copy (in All objects) to keep a copy. You can open it again on any computer.
Does Rigami use my models to train AI?
No. In the test your work never leaves your browser, so we could not even if we wanted to. We never will without asking you first.
Which tools does it work with?
In the test, Rigami exports GLB: one file with your model, textures, skeleton and animations. Unreal Engine, Godot and Blender open GLB as it is. Unity opens it with the free glTFast package. FBX and other formats are coming later.
What does it cost?
The test is free. There is no price or opening date yet. Nothing is for sale. Our waitlist asks one question about price, to help us decide.
How do I get in?
The test is invite-only, for about 20 game makers. Join the waitlist and we will email you when Rigami opens to more people.
Is it safe to import my files?
Your files are opened in your browser and stay there. Nothing is uploaded. Only bring in files you have the right to use.
Who makes Rigami?
Rigami is made by Baris Atas, a game maker in Dubai, United Arab Emirates. It is not a company yet; one will be set up before anything is sold. Contact
