Test your game in real-time while building it. Control the protagonist to trigger events and use items—creating feels just like playing.

Choose from multiple control perspectives and movement schemes (e.g., WASD + FPS view) so you can design levels and interactions in a way that’s natural to you. What you see is what you get.

Freely adjust visual elements like lighting, fog, and environmental details to quickly shape your ideal game atmosphere. All settings can be imported/exported, making it easy to share configurations or customize a visual style that matches your game’s theme.

Filter System

Xrafts includes a rich set of editable filters to help you craft a distinct visual style with ease.

The filter library has seven categories:

• Game Graphics Filters (Fog of War, Screen Shake, Halo, Lens Flare, etc.), totaling 11.

• Style Filters (Retro, Cartoon, Hand-Drawn, etc.), totaling 126.

• Mixed Filters (Sharpen, Gaussian Blur, Noise Reduction, etc.), totaling 7.

• Special Effects (Fire, Starry Sky, Clouds, Aurora, etc.), totaling 69.

• Backgrounds (Matrix, Blood, Light, Silk, Nebula, Ambilight, etc.), totaling 128.

• Distortions (Underwater, Heat Wave, Fisheye, Broken Screen, etc.), totaling 31.

• Developer (files saved by custom Shader Node Editor)

Effects Editor

Create stunning magic and skill effects with a powerful editor. Access a large library of ready-to-use particles, sprites, and 3D effects for spells, events, and environmental interactions—instantly elevating your game’s visuals.

Edit or customize based on Effekseer projects—create dazzling effects with minimal effort.

Shader Editor

se a node-based shader editing tool to freely adjust materials, filters, and effects—or create entirely new visual styles—and see changes in real-time.

All shaders are optimized for mobile and console platforms, tested for over a year for stability and performance. GLSL experts can directly write or edit shaders for deeper customization.

Animation Import & Performance Design

Import FBX models and animations (from Unity/UE stores, Mixamo, etc.). The system automatically rigs characters and applies motion—bringing your creations to life. Drag and drop to see results instantly.

Combine animation, music, events, and filters to create immersive cutscenes, music videos, or stage performances. If you use VRoid Studio to make VRM models, Xrafts automatically adds physics to MMD/VRM-compliant models for more natural movement.

Staging a performance has never been easier: pick props, set the stage, position characters, and bind animation events—your first scene is ready to go.

Dialogue Editor

Create engaging narratives with ease. Intuitively control character placement, layering, portraits, names, and dialogue. Insert music, sound, CG images, or video at any point.

Manage every detail via a streamlined timeline: control animations, color shifts, transitions, screen effects, camera motion, unlockable features, and UI triggers. Spine files and click events (v4.0+) are supported, enabling high-quality dynamic storytelling.

Logic Editing & Scripting

Control all in-game elements with the visual event editor—no code needed. For advanced systems, use block-based logic or TypeScript APIs without compilation. Debug and develop with external IDE support for full flexibility.

Unit Editor & Database

asily configure classes, attributes, and progression curves. Assign skills, talents, and gear—see stat growth and upgrade costs clearly.

Write TypeScript tests to validate game balance and core mechanics.

Auto-Navigation System

As you build your scene, Xrafts automatically generates efficient pathfinding data in the background. Easily integrate NPC following, quest guidance, and combat AI.

Physics Engine

A high-performance 2D/3D physics engine powers realistic interactions: ragdolls, vehicles, elevators, pendulums, levers, chains, conveyor belts, cloth, springs, bridges, ropes, destruction, and more.

Adjust global or individual physics parameters like gravity, mass, friction, and materials—create a playful, physical world intuitively.

AI Tools

XCE AI (Xrafts Contents Editor) is an AI-native creation system. Rather than simply integrating features like AI image generation, conversational AI, or AI voice synthesis as external plugins, it deeply embeds AI into the core workflows of game and short-form drama production. These workflows span the entire pipeline—from creative input, 2D/3D digital asset generation, character animation, CG effects, and audio production to natural language-driven game logic, automated testing, numerical balancing, and user feedback analysis. Ultimately, it serves as a "playable content generation platform" designed for individual creators, small teams, educational institutions, and enterprise content production.

The strategic value of XCE AI lies in its role as an "AI-driven tool for streamlined, industrial-scale production." It addresses not merely isolated efficiency issues, but three long-standing hurdles in the creation of games and short-form dramas:

• High barriers to art asset creation: Icons, UI, environments, characters, animations, special effects, music, and voiceovers all require professional expertise.

• High barriers to logic and engineering: Many creators have gameplay concepts but lack the skills to write code, build systems, or structure event logic.

• High barriers to testing and tuning: Games and short-form dramas are not finished simply upon generation; they require addressing playability, interactivity, balance, the user experience loop, and continuous iteration.

Therefore, XCE AI’s core objective is not merely to generate a single image or video clip; rather, it enables users—using natural language and minimal reference materials—to directly generate game and short-form drama projects that are fully editable, executable, testable, and ready for release.

Beyond gaming, XCE AI also supports interactive AI short-form dramas. The system organizes scripts, characters, environments, camera angles, voiceovers, and video assets into an XCE project. It then utilizes dialogue, events, variables, and branching logic to create interactive content featuring choice points, state changes, and multiple endings. Consequently, short-form dramas evolve from linear videos into interactive works that are editable, executable, and ready for publication.

Custom Key Mapping

Intuitive key rebinding allows players to customize controls with ease. You can even reskin the key config UI—just replace image elements.
