Aseprite (/ˈeɪspraɪt/ AY-spryte[3]) is a proprietary, source-available image editor designed primarily for pixel art drawing and animation. It runs on Windows, macOS, and Linux, and features different tools for image and animation editing such as layers, frames, tilemap support, command-line interface, Lua scripting, among others. It is developed by Igara Studio S.A. and led by the developers David, Gaspar, and Martín Capello.[4] Aseprite can be downloaded as freeware, (albeit it does not have the ability to save sprites)[5] or purchased on Steam or Itch.io.[6] Aseprite source code and binaries are distributed under EULA, educational, and Steam proprietary licenses.
