Noticed this in my distro’s repo today (fedora) and figured I’d bring some attention to it. Asesprite is the premier pixel art tool, so it’s awesome to see someone keeping the FOSS version alive!
There’s also a great book from NoStarchPress made for Asesprite, and assumes absolutely no previous artistic knowledge!
I love libresprite, even tho it lacks behind aseprite in a feel features it was great to have a free and so robust pixel art editor when i was getting serious about it, i really improved a lot using it but with the lack of new updates i ended up just buying aseprite in a sale on steam
