Ai-assisted asset separation, editing, and reintegration

A cloud server system comprising:

• one or more processors;
• and
• one or more memories storing executable instructions that, upon execution by the one or more processors, cause the cloud server system to perform operations to:
• select, responsive to a request from a client device, an asset of a video game application, the asset comprising a visual element rendered in a first virtual environment of the video game application
• extract from the asset, sub-asset data associated with one or more characteristics of the visual element;
• transmit the sub-asset data to the client device for local editing performed using a game editing application on the client device to thereby generate a modified sub-asset;
• and
• reintegrate the modified sub-asset into the asset of the video game application.

A computer-readable storage medium storing computer-executable instructions that, when executed by one or more processors, cause operations comprising:

• selecting, responsive to a request from a client device, an asset of a video game application, the asset comprising a visual element rendered in a first virtual environment of the video game application;
• extracting from the asset, sub-asset data associated with one or more characteristics of the visual element;
• transmitting the sub-asset data to the client device for local editing performed using a game editing application on the client device to thereby generate a modified sub-asset;
• and
• reintegrating the modified sub-asset into the asset of the video game application.
