EnglishWhat tools does raylib technologies offer?
Updated
raylib technologies publishes a set of small, focused game-development utilities on itch.io, each aimed at one pipeline task: installers, textures, sounds, UI, or resource packing. Most are paid desktop tools listed at $9.95–$19.95, and several also offer a browser version you can run without installing anything. The list below covers every tool shown on the raylib technologies itch.io profile, with its stated purpose and whether a browser option is available.

Choosing by pipeline task
Packaging and distribution
- rInstallFriendly builds installer packages, so it belongs at the end of your build process when you need something users can run to install your game or tool.
- rrespacker packs resources into the rres format, which is the step before shipping if your project loads assets through rres.
Textures and images
- rTexViewer is for viewing, editing, and arranging textures on an image board — useful when you need to inspect or tweak source art.
- rTexPacker takes individual textures and produces packed atlases plus font atlases, the step that reduces draw calls in a texture-atlas workflow.
- rImageShield embeds a message inside an image, which is a niche task rather than a routine pipeline step.
Audio
- rFXGen generates sound effects, covering the point where you need short FX audio but don't have a sound designer or sample library.
UI (raygui)
- rGuiStyler edits raygui styles.
- rGuiIcons edits raygui icons.
- rGuiLayout edits raygui layouts.
These three only make sense if you are building UI with raygui; together they cover styling, icon selection, and layout.
Other
- rQuizzer is a quizzer tool, which sits outside the typical game asset pipeline.
Practical notes before you buy
- Check the browser version first. For most tools the profile offers a "Run in browser" option, so you can evaluate whether the tool fits your workflow before paying for the desktop version.
- The tools are described as self-contained and pipeline-friendly, with a command-line interface alongside the GUI — relevant if you want to script any of these steps into an automated build.
- Prices are per tool, not a bundle. The listed prices range from $9.95 (rIconPacker) to $19.95 (rInstallFriendly, rTexViewer, rTexPacker, rImageShield, rQuizzer, rrespacker). The profile does not state a price for rFXGen, rGuiStyler, rGuiIcons, or rGuiLayout.
- Match the tool to your engine setup. The raygui editors assume you use raygui; rrespacker assumes you use the rres resource format. If you don't, those tools won't help regardless of price.
If you only need one thing, pick by task: atlas generation → rTexPacker, sound effects → rFXGen, installer → rInstallFriendly, raygui interface work → the rGui* trio.
