Inktica
Inktica is a pixel-art and texture editor for creating low-resolution artwork, animated sprites, and game assets on mobile devices. Its drawing tools include a brush with pixel-perfect line mode, eraser, fill, gradient, line, shape, and color-picking tools, plus selection controls for copying, moving, rotating, and flipping artwork. Layers help organize projects, while frame-by-frame animation and onion skinning support sprite workflows. Users can work with classic-console palettes, import palettes from Lospec, and open a reference image while drawing. Inktica can import Aseprite project files and export finished work to image, animation, video, and sprite-sheet formats for saving or sharing. It is intended for pixel artists and game creators producing retro-style graphics, sprites, and textures.
