The design was created to resemble the right-click and the possition seemed more comfortable than anywhere else. I made a mockup image to help visualise my idea. I will be very grateful to recieve any updates on future development of the iOS/Android version and it would be my pleasure to help or come up with ideas to solve any issues that stop the progression. I consider that it would benefit both sides, the consumer and the developers as the program would recieve a greater audiance and the consumers would have the acces to such a great tool. LoadImage function replaces texture contents with new image data Still in Aseprite.

#ASEPRITE MOBILE ANDROID#

I trully want this program to have an iOS/ android version. deploy them across mobile, desktop, VR/AR, consoles or the Web.

This is the only idea that came to me so far, I will keep thinking about it and try to help. So what I’m trying to explain is that you would use the tools with their normal function (left click) and when you activate the “reverse button” all the tools change to the right-click function. My idea is to have a separat button that changes the function of the tool used, the same way the right-click does. In the end, the result matters more than the tool you used, so just find something that works for you.Hi so it took me a few days but I came up with a solution for the right-click problem. Of course there are many more programs you can use, but these 4 are the ones I’m familiar with.

#ASEPRITE MOBILE SOFTWARE#

The program is open-source, meaning you can just compile it yourself, but believe me when I say that it’s a hassle and a half.Īnd there we go, 4 pieces of graphics software you can use to create assets for your Mega Drive projects.

#ASEPRITE MOBILE FULL VERSION#

The full version (available for Windows, Mac and Linux) costs $14.99 which really isn’t much when you consider what you’re getting.

#ASEPRITE MOBILE TRIAL#

There is a free trial version (which has all features but doesn’t allow you to save) so you can give it a spin. It’s even easy to create animations and generate spritesheets… I could go on and on, Aseprite is just an awesome package all around. It uses palettes by default and it’s very powerful, boasting lots of features that make the life of retro pixel artists easier.

#ASEPRITE MOBILE PC#

I’ve been using Aseprite to create graphics for all my projects, from PC games to mobile to Mega Drive. Last but anything but least, my personal favorite: Aseprite. It’s free, open-source and available for all platforms. Depending on what software you work with, the UI of Grafx2 might take some getting used to but it’s a very good tool for Mega Drive development once you get the hang of it. It offers easy palette management and boasts some cool features, like spreading colors (creating gradients from one color to another, like white to black). It uses palettes by default and is geared towards retro computer graphics. And that begins with its user interface, which might seem scary but is rather appropriate when you consider what you’re gonna use it for. Inspired by programs such as Deluxe Paint on the Amiga, Grafx2 is a blast back into the past. And even if you’re not using it, feel free to give it a try! 3. Plus, I’ve never been able to get a handle on GIMP to be honest… but your mileage may very well vary! If you’re already using GIMP then you can also use it for your Mega Drive art purposes. However, since it’s a full graphics suite that doesn’t exactly focus on old-school pixel art, it’s not the best choice in my opinion. Like its commercial cousin, GIMP supports an indexed color mode and it makes working with palettes easier than it is in Photoshop. The free and open-source alternative to Photoshop fares better when it comes to Mega Drive graphics. So while Photoshop is certainly able to do the job, there are more fitting tools out there. For example, it’s a bit bothersome to reorder colors in your palette and there are no built-in features like color spreading. And while Photoshop does support an indexed color mode which we need for Mega Drive development, it’s rather lacking in features in that particular area. We don’t need cutting edge tech and powerful features, we’re working with 30 year old hardware here. Photoshop is very powerful and an industry standard, but that might actually be a disadvantage in our case. Let’s get the big one out of the way first. Only practice makes perfect, but the graphics software you use can make your job easier…or maybe even harder! So in this post I wanted to give you a list of 4 graphics programs that you can use to create graphics for your Mega Drive game. You have to keep these things in mind from the very beginning, before you even place your first pixel.

Making art is hard, but retro consoles make the job even harder due to technical limitations and restrictions, such as a limited color palette.
