There's a free version of Pyxel Edit, but it seems like it's quite outdated.Įdit: GraphicsGale is free though, so while it's too bad it doesn't look great it's got that going for it at least.Įdit 2: I downloaded the free trial of Aesprite because I was curious how the shading thing worked and it's free, so hey! One thing I definitely noticed was that there seems to be no way to make tile sets, so you're mainly working with a single thing at once, whereas Pyxel Edit has whole tile sheets which let you make, say, an 8圆 array of 32x32 sprites. Aesprite does seem to have a free trial (although you can't save things), so it's probably worth trying it out before buying it. I enjoy using it and it works pretty well, however it can't be denied that it's missing certain features that would be really handy like dithering (or the shading mode/custom brushes that Aesprite has). I got Pyxel Edit in the game dev humble bundle, (and I got the bundle mostly since I was looking at Pyxel Edit).
