Kenney
kenney.nl
A large collection of game assets in 2D sprites, 3D models, UI packs and audio, released under CC0 so they can be used for any project.
Kenney is a game asset studio that gives away thousands of assets for free. Packs include 2D sprites, 3D models, user-interface elements and sound effects, all in a consistent clean style so assets from different packs fit together.
Everything is released under CC0, so you can use it in any project without credit, although credit is appreciated. The site also offers free, open-source starter kits for several game genres to help beginners get a playable prototype quickly. Kenney is funded by donations and a paid club for early access, so supporting it directly helps keep the assets free.
Why it is useful
The assets share a consistent clean style, so you can build a complete-looking prototype from a single source. CC0 licensing means there are no attribution or commercial restrictions to worry about.
