PNG2br

PNG2br is a lightweight tool for puppeteering simple pngtubers. I made it because I couldn't find an existing tool that met the following requirements:

• Must be a standalone, native executable.
• Must run well on my machines, including low- and mid-spec laptops.
• Must have a reasonable footprint in both size and resource use.
• No DRM, no tedious Terms of Use or EULA, and no association with Unity Technologies Inc.

Feature Overview

• Dead simple interface.
• Avatars use a simple text-based format.
  
• Up to 10 (conveniently accessible) avatar states.
• 7 configurable effects to apply to states, such as squash and stretch, flashing color, etc.

Instructions

• OBS Setup
• Controls
• Avatar Creation

Platforms

PNG2br is available for Intel/AMD 64-bit Windows only. When time allows, I will upload x86 and arm64 builds, and put together a macOS build if there is sufficient demand for one. No "official" Linux builds are planned, but I may open-source the project.

Planned Features

• A config file specifying a startup avatar, background color,  window size, etc.
• Better accessibility: A fully visual editor for avatars.
• Maybe: Virtual camera output.
• Maybe: Support for external control from e.g. a Stream Deck.
• Maybe: Foreground and background "props."
• If there is something specific you would like to see in a future version, let me know in the forum! I will consider user requests when prioritizing work.
