I’m looking for a good sprite/pixel editor for desktop Linux. I don’t mind shelling out some money for the right tool.

Sprite organization is the key feature Animation support is a must Artistic lighting effects and such would be nice Compatibility with godot and unity is a plus

What are you using for sprite making/organization on linux? What other features do you find useful/essential?

Thanks!

    As mentioned Aseprite has a linux build.

    Pixelorama is very similar to Aseprite, but has free builds. Is built with Godot and is open source.

    It looks like Aseprite can export a texture atlas, but I haven’t seen the ability to do so in Pixelorama.

    For lighting effects there’s an application called Sprite Lamp (also has a linux build) that’s been around for a long time. I haven’t used this one though.

    I haven’t done any of these workflows in awhile but I hope that this helps.
