Sloyd 3D game art
Overall it was definitely good for the early concept stages of making art. However right now, I wouldn't take it much further than that
PROSIt'd was quick and effective to use. It made great use of my prompts.
CONSThe topology might not have been effective for game art. Maybe a setting to make the polygon density lower would be effective
Vendor Response
Thanks for placing a review. You can definitely use the LOD slider to reduce the polygon count and get the topology to the right level. We are also planning improvements to topology. We're glad that you've made use of Sloyd for concept design, that a very common use case among our users.

Not really match user expectation
I tried to generate a styled model "big horns in Steampunk style", but Sloyd just give me a water pipe. this is not what user expected
PROSUser Interface, Edit with AI test. I experience generate a keyboard, I can ask Sloyd edit "make it with keypad". The generated 3d mode is good
CONSOnly basic material is applied to the model, some competitors can apply very good texture with material
Vendor Response
Thanks for leaving a review. Textures are coming. Expected to be in the web app in about 2 months.

Have been using this tool for a long time and it has grown so well since the early days.
Delighted with the tool, have used it for game jams as well as larger projects and for models to bring into Blender etc, or to turn into voxel creations using other software.
PROSAmazing and simple procedural 3D models for games and other creative purposes, the generators are crafted by hand so the models are of significantly better quality than other online generative services.
CONSI think the perfect pricing setup is yet to be found but I believe the team will definitely get there in time.

Easy and fun AI 3D Object generator
i was just browsing the internet to see how 3D objects AI generation was. Then I stumbled on sloyd and decided to give it a shot. I was so impressed that I share the website with a few of my students on th same day. They were also very impressed and some of them became users immediately. I'm using the free version as a tryout but I am very impressed by its generative capabilities. Even the hallucinations can be fun to use.
PROSVery easy to use and to export the 3D images. I had fun doing it and already shared with some of my friends and students. The UI is intuitive and the menu for adjustments is pretty neat.
CONSLow resolution of the 3D images. But I am on the free plan so, cannot complain much about it.
Vendor Response
Thanks for posting a review. BTW we can predict when what we generate will not match the prompt very well (i.e. hallucinations) we opt to show a result anyway. We might experiment with letting the user know when we predict the outcome is going to be off.

Best 3D software
Ease of creation and it allows intergration into other 3D softwares.
CONSSlow loading time when creating a 3D object.
Vendor Response
Thanks for leaving a review. We're glad that you enjoy using us. The initial loading time is a bit long, especially when you're not on broadband. We load a few things upfront so that the excellence later on is seamless. That said, we are also looking into ways to improve load time.

i don't know yet
honestly i really want this to make simple printable 3d models for me, like adapters for mounting things where they don't belong. i want to input an item description + dimensions and have it spit out an stl. i haven't been able to accomplish that, but I'm still learning, so i guess I'll keep trying.
CONSthat I haven't been able to accomplish what I described above
Vendor Response
Thanks for leaving a review. We are being used by a lot of 3D printing enthusiast. However, we don't have the ability to take in precise dimensions. Other 3D printing users generate a model and then use another software to scale it and convert it from OBJ to STL. Maybe try that.

Constructive criticism
I think this product will be very cool to be integrated with other platforms. I don't see how a user or developer using it that much for the price. But I know that big platforms could partner with you to provide it to customers for free. I refer to metaverse platforms and so on.
PROS- The models are very lightweight, which is great for use in low-poly games. - Model generation is very fast. - Intuitive interface and simplified export.
CONS- There could be a button to reset the value of each slide to the original value. - Very limited and poorly customizable material options. - It should be possible to preview the materials. - Select where objects will spawn. - Explanation of what each slide changes. - Possibility to create typography (signs).
Vendor Response
Thanks for leaving a review. We are planning a lot enhancements to material options and textures.

Crafting Creativity and Tradition with Modern Technology
Sloyd is a form of manual education that focuses on hands-on learning through craft projects and manual work. It is used to teach practical skills, foster creativity, develop manual dexterity, and promote self-expression through craftsmanship. Additionally, Sloyd can serve as a therapeutic and relaxing activity, helping to reduce stress and improve concentration. In summary, Sloyd is used as an educational and recreational tool to learn practical skills, foster creativity, and enjoy traditional craftsmanship.
PROSWhat I like most about Sloyd is its focus on hands-on learning and creativity. This practice promotes manual and artistic skills while preserving traditional craftsmanship and cultural heritage. The sense of accomplishment in completing a Sloyd project and the opportunity to express creativity through crafts make this activity rewarding and enriching for those who engage in it.
CONSSome potential drawbacks of Sloyd include the time-consuming nature of projects, the need for ample space and tools, the complexity of certain techniques, and the risk of injury when working with sharp tools. These factors may pose challenges for individuals seeking quick results, facing resource limitations, dealing with intricate tasks, or prioritizing safety precautions in their crafting endeavors.

It is extremely easy to use. The objects look great. You can adjust and preview your prompt before it uses your credits.
CONSThe only thing that I would say is a con is that the graphics are limited.
Vendor Response
We're glad you find it fun Alex! Interesting comment about graphics. If by graphics you mean the lighting and rendering in our canvas then maybe it's something we can work on. It's not our focus, we assume most users export the assets to render in another tool or to a game engine. But we could add a few more options.

Sloyd: 3d model generator AI
Sloyd is awesome AI at its level. The models generated by it are very clean and up to the point. Only thing it lacks is the limited amount of type of models it generates. If it started generating all kinds of models, this is gonna become so useful and one of the best AI for 3d game developers like me.
PROSThe best thing about Sloyd is, it is very easy to use, just simply write prompt and generate 3d models. The models generated by this AI is much cleaner than other AI's which generates 3d models.
CONSThe only conn about Sloyd is its limited use. We can create only limited type of 3d models like furniture, items, weapons etc. If Sloyd started creating other type of models like different type of plants, animals, 3d characters and much more, it's gonna beat other AIs in this field easily.

Its very easy to understand and use, very friendly for those who are not 3D experts but have a vision in mind.
CONSI missed content and the hability to give to the community the chance to upload things. Also, I missed more focus in game development. Maybe some unity connections or plugins?

Thanks for leaving a review. Our aim is to have a new item drop every week, adding to the variety of things you can create with Sloyd. Also, we just launched a Unity Plugin yet it's a product for companies and not yet available as for self service. Interesting note about community, I'd love to hear more.

Thanks to Sloyd
Great to create 3D models with using generative AI!
CONSNot too usable for new users and UI is too complex.
Vendor Response
Thanks Ali for leaving a review. Some generators do have a lot of customization options that can make it seem complex. We are trying to improve how we organize the sliders and buttons. Yet, this is the main benefit of conversational AI editing: you don't have to look for 'the right' slider to change something. You can just write the AI a text description of what you want to change and it will look for the right sliders and buttons for you.

Quick Inspiration for 3D scenes
I used Sloyd to make base assets for a 3d scene in Blender. It's great for giving me inspiration and a quick base to work further with.
PROSI like the randomize feature to quickly generate new shape ideas for the 3D scene I had to make.
CONSAlthough there are quite a lot of generators already, it does feel limiting if you want to go for a specific style. You can use a 3d editing software like Blender to make up for that though.
