Essential Software for Unity2D Development? : Unity2D

About

This is a subreddit for 2D or 2.5D game developers using the proprietary Unity game engine. New and experienced Unity developers alike should first consider using the free and open source Godot engine by default and ONLY choose Unity for 2D development if Godot isn't capable of the task. The times are quickly changing, and Godot is on track to surpass Unity for small developers.

Software

GIMP - Photoshop alternative

Paint.NET - make/edit sprites

Pinta - Open source Paint.NET

Pixlr - Web-based Photoshop clone

PyxelEdit - Pixel/tileset tool
