Additionally, Aseprite runs on Linux, which is a big pro for me.
Aseprite is also open-source and free if you compile it yourself. https://github.com/aseprite/aseprite
I love the idea of an "isometric grid!"
I will buy this software once I figure out how to use Steam.
Does it support a practical stylus-oriented workflow? Can I use all its functions in a purely touch+stylus mode, without reaching for the keyboard at all? I'm looking for such a pixel-art tool, not aware of any at the moment. (Also, I'm totally an absolute amateur, so I might be missing some.)
