A Stykz animation file contains digital 2D objects and elements along with animated movement configurations and settings. The digital 2D image storage specifications implemented into these Stykz animation files make it possible for a user of the Stykz application to configure moving points in the 2D images stored in the Stykz animation file. These moving points can then be manipulated and saved as animated sequences. The encoding standards implemented into these Stykz animation files allow the Stykz program to store the content in these Stykz animation files in the STYKZ file format. Affixed with the .stykz extension, these Stykz animation files can also be combined to produce a longer stick figure animation. Timelines and other metadata details associated to the Stykz animation file are also stored in the corresponding STYKZ file by the author of the animated Stykz stick figure. The Stykz application is categorized as a simple 2D stick figure animation and development program, similar to the Stickfigure Animator application from Pivot.how to open a .stykz file?

Be careful not to rename the extension on .stykz files, or any other files. This will not change the file type. Only special conversion software can change a file from one file type to another.what is a file extension?
A file extension is the set of three or four characters at the end of a filename; in this case, .stykz. File extensions tell you what type of file it is, and tell Windows what programs can open it. Windows often associates a default program to each file extension, so that when you double-click the file, the program launches automatically. When that program is no longer on your PC, you can sometimes get an error when you try to open the associated file.
