Top 23 Sprite Open-Source Projects

  1. material-design-icons

    Material Design icons by Google (Material Symbols)

    Project mention: MiniMax-M1 open-weight, large-scale hybrid-attention reasoning model | news.ycombinator.com | 2025-06-17

    1. No it's not. Top GitHub repository from Google as an example: https://github.com/google/material-design-icons I think you'd actually be hard pressed to find a single repository where the company that owns it lists where they are registered.

    2. This is a requirement for companies registered in the UK. You should also read your own link, it doesn't say anything about the company's presence on 3rd party websites.

    3. This is such a remote reason it's laughable.

    You just want them to mention it because it's a Chinese company. If they were American, Mexican, German or Zimbabwean you wouldn't give the slightest fuck.

  3. aseprite

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

    Project mention: Making Graphics Like it's 1993 | news.ycombinator.com | 2026-06-09

    If you want to play with software rendering, here's probably the shortest code that will get an ARGB8888 2D array from main memory to the screen efficiently for all platforms using SDL2 in C https://gist.github.com/CoryBloyd/6725bb78323bb1157ff8d4175d... you'll need to do the translation from a 320x200x8-bit palletized framebuffer to ARGB yourself ;)

    If you want to get inspired by what can be done with palletized framebuffers check out http://www.effectgames.com/demos/canvascycle/ (click Show Options) and the GDC presentation by the artist https://youtu.be/aMcJ1Jvtef0

    With that you can fire up https://github.com/mriale/PyDPainter for that classic Deluxe Paint IIe vibe. Or, https://www.aseprite.org/ for something more modern.

  5. LibreSprite

    Animated sprite editor & pixel art tool -- Fork of the last GPLv2 commit of Aseprite

    Project mention: LibreSprite – open-source pixel art editor | news.ycombinator.com | 2026-03-06

    > This fork was made on the last commit covered by the GPL version 2 license, and is now developed independently of Aseprite.

    Also I am not really sure if you can convince me that this is a open source license: https://github.com/aseprite/aseprite/blob/main/EULA.txt

    Not that it is a unreasonable license, but it is not open source.
