    Aseprite is free if you compile it yourself [0], and can still be used for commercial purposes if compiled this way [1]. But I recommend buying it anyway to support the project. [0…

    How do you know which way the red sphere is facing? A fun experiment would be to write two prompts for "a person in the middle, a dog to their left, and a cat to their right", and …
