Stipple Effect
A pixel art editor that supports animation and scripting
Stipple Effect is a pixel art editor that supports animation and scripting. It is designed to facilitate a variety of workflows and to encourage rapid, iterative creation of video game art assets and other types of artwork.
Stipple Effect was made by a solo indie game developer with the needs and skill sets of other indie developers in mind. It is lightweight and simple to learn and use, yet allows for considerable depth and complexity. Stipple Effect has a feature-rich scripting API that can be harnessed for the automation of otherwise tedious and repetitive tasks.
