  1. aseprite

    Animated sprite editor & pixel art tool (Windows, macOS, Linux)

    I feel like I need to shout out aseprite here: https://www.aseprite.org/

    It's a really good pixel art tool, but I think their licensing strategy is particularly interesting to the hn audience. The tool is open source, but they don't distribute binaries for free. So if you just want to use it, you can buy a copy like normal software, but if you've got the technical ability to do so, you could just build a binary yourself from source. Always struck me as such a good compromise.
