Sprite Feel Lab – Test Animation Timing, Weight & Game Feel (Browser Tool)

Make your animations feel right before putting them in your game.

Sprite Feel Lab lets you import a sprite sheet, adjust timing, simulate input delay, and test how animations feel — helping you refine motion, weight, and responsiveness.
