Alchemy Icons - 1,000 Pixel Art Icons, 20 Categories
A downloadable asset pack
1,000 alchemy icons. Cut out, not cropped.
Pixel-art icons for the whole alchemist's trade: what goes into the cauldron, what it is brewed in, what comes out, and the buttons and status tiles your crafting UI needs around it. Every icon is a separate PNG with a real alpha channel — no matte, no background colour to key out — so it sits the same on a dark panel or a light one.
Potions is free on this page — all 50 icons at every size, with their sprite sheets and the same licence as the pack. Download it and you know exactly what the other nineteen categories look like.
| Icons | 1,000, every one a separate file |
| Native size | 32 × 32 pixel art |
| Also included | 64, 128 and 256 px (scaled crisp, nearest neighbour) |
| Sprite sheets | one 10 × 5 sheet per category at 32 and 64 px, plus a single 40 × 25 atlas of everything |
| Data | manifest.json: name, category, tags, files and sheet cell for every icon |
| Licence | Unlimited commercial projects, no royalty, attribution not required but appreciated. |
🧪 Twenty categories — 25 subjects each, drawn twice
Every subject comes in two versions — a second vessel, a second colour morph, the open book and the closed one — so you can use one for the item and the other for its upgrade.

🗂️ The names ship as data — no typing 1,000 item names
Files are numbered and named — potions/01a_healing-draught.png, 01b_healing-draught.png — and manifest.json lists every icon with its category, tags, a file per size and its sprite-sheet cell, so you can load a whole category into an item database without typing a single name.
{ "name": "Healing Draught", "tags": ["potion", "round", "cork"], "files": { "32": "32x32/potions/01a_healing-draught.png", … }, "sheet_cell": [0, 0] }
🎮 Drops into any engine — plain PNGs, no importer
These are plain PNGs. They drop into Godot, Unity, Unreal, GameMaker, Defold, a web build or a design tool with no importer and no dependency.
For crisp pixels, turn off texture filtering (Nearest / Point) and scale by whole numbers — or use the 64, 128 and 256 px copies, which are already scaled that way.
📜 Licence — use them anywhere, don't resell them
Use the icons in any number of commercial and non-commercial projects, with no revenue cap. Modify them freely. Attribution is not required, but it is appreciated.
You may not resell or redistribute the icons themselves, alone or in another asset pack.
Made by Bitwise Gaming. Our alchemy puzzle game Alchemia: The Great Work is where this pack started.
