I'm finalizing a large bundle of raster graphics and animation importers for Godot. This bundle already supports: Aseprite, Krita and Pencil2D. And will be able to support GraphicsGale, Piskel, Pixelorama and regular GIF-format in the future. Source: 11 months ago

If none of this sounds appealing, the only other suggestions I have are either find 3rd party magnifying lens software or to search for a new pixel editor. There are some newer pixel art editors out there, such as Pixelorama, PixiEditor and PixelMash. There are also general raster image editors, such as GIMP and Krita. Other suggestions are listed on Lospec. Source: about 1 year ago

Pixelorama is another open source pixel editor that looks increasingly like an alternative to Aseprite (although I do not think it is in any way officially trying to be a free clone of that). Source: over 1 year ago

There's Pixelorama[1], a web-based pixel art editor. Haven't really used it but it looks pretty impressive. 1: https://orama-interactive.itch.io/pixelorama. - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

I got Aseprite on Steam when it was on sale and it can export PNGs that should work. Also found https://orama-interactive.itch.io/pixelorama. I'm a big fan of GIMP in general but specialized tools can be more approachable and make common tasks easier. For example, both of these have a tiled viewing mode and mirrored/symmetry drawing options to help make tiles that tile well. Source: over 1 year ago

You mean like a map editor? Are you talking 2d or 3d? For 2d, I like Tiled. Source: over 1 year ago

I'm not good in programing and I'm about to develop a story driven action rpg style game. I like to be able to do a lot (sometimes turn-based, sometimes hack'n'slash), use different weapons, be able to develop the character's level, weapons... And to have access to lots of assets and tools that make development easier (e.g. Rpg maker works with tiles mapeditor.org). thoughts? Source: about 2 years ago

You could easily do this without having to implement anything. Have people download Tiled at mapeditor.org and make their maps with it, then they can export their maps to .json and you could open them on your machine for review with the same program. Source: about 2 years ago

The free tileset editor I used is called Tiled and can be downloaded here: mapeditor.org. Source: about 3 years ago
