SpookyGhost, my open-source procedural animation tool for sprites, comes to Raspberry Pi
It uses my 2D framework nCine, which I recently ported to Raspberry Pi. That's why there are so many supported platforms. ;)

nCine comes to Raspberry (my open-source 2D game framework)
nCine is a cross-platform 2D framework written in C++11 and scriptable with Lua that can be used for games, tools, or prototypes. I have been working on it in my spare time for more than ten years and it now works out-of-the-box on the latest version or Raspberry Pi OS!

SpookyGhost, a procedural sprite animation tool, is now free and open source
I created this tool for game artists a while ago, with the hope of selling it and start an independent company about game development, tools, and game technology.
Unfortunately, it sold pretty much nothing so I'm back to the game industry as an employee while I decided to make it FOSS. :D
It is written in C++ using my game framework nCine (https://ncine.github.io/) and ImGui, and it supports multiple platforms, like PC, Android, and the web.
