Manabit
Manabit is a pixel art editor for sprites, tile maps, animation and projects with multiple stages. Its drawing tools include vector paths, editable shapes, pixel-perfect lines, modifiers, custom palettes and a hue shifter. Map Builder supports tile capture and level painting, while animation features allow separate frame counts for each layer and export of animation strips. Manabit can open images, GIFs, Aseprite files and PSD files, and export PNG, JPG, GIF and animation strips. Projects can be saved online and reopened in another browser or device. The browser app is free to use, though some features are limited until purchase. The maker describes it as browser-first and intended for artists and indie game developers. Supported platforms listed include web, Windows, iOS and Android; the native desktop installer is Windows-only. Manabit Pro costs $5.99 a month as an auto-renewing monthly subscription via PayPal and requires a Manabit license. The Full Editor costs $9.99, paid once and includes one seat, Windows and browser access, unlimited projects and lifetime updates.
