Pixel Studio

Pixel artists edit their images on the pixel level, creating beautiful sprites, mostly used in older video games and limited systems. Nevertheless, pixel art remains a form of expression that finds its practical use nowadays as well, allowing the design of icons and small images.

Pixel Studio is one of the editors you can use to build your sprite pixel by pixel or create icons for websites and applications.

Providing multi-layer support and a rich collection of drawing tools, Pixel Studio can assist you in creating your design. You can either import an image and modify it, or start from scratch and put your idea into practice.

Its main window is mostly occupied by the drawing canvas, which is already split to mark the pixel grid. As mentioned before, Pixel Studio allows you to manage multiple layers, which helps you create multiple objects and make sure they blend and work well together. It also comes in handy for creating GIF animations and making modifications without altering your entire work.

Aiming to deliver a comprehensive drawing toolbox, Pixel Studio also features an assortment of brushes and additional design instruments. It comes with blending and masking options, cropping and panning tools, and advanced zooming.

The symmetry tools help you create perfect shapes, and the various erasers to help you correct mistakes with ease. For each tool or brush, you can adjust the size, the density, and the opacity. What's more, Pixel Studio enables you to combine colors and adjust the hue, the saturation, and the luminance levels.

Used by a professional, Pixel Studio has the capabilities of creating impressive sprites, icons, and other similar graphics. And even if you are not very experienced in this field, this application is intuitive and versatile enough to help you learn as you go.
