Spriter Pro

Spriter makes it easy for anyone, regardless of experience, to create 2D game animations using a technique called Modular Animation. 

Unlike traditional animation which requires each frame to be hand-drawn, Spriter animations are made of individual sprite pieces; these pieces can be rotated, transformed, and tweened along an animation timeline. This allows you to quickly create great looking animations in a fraction of the time while requiring significantly less art. 

Spriter also takes advantage of skeletal animation. Create a skeleton using the bone tool, attach images to each bone, and finally animate the bones with Spriter's vast array of user-friendly animation tools. The result: a fully animated sprite using your own graphics. 

Spriter is great for animating characters, user interfaces, power-ups, combat animations and more! Even if you've never animated before, Spriter provides you with an easy to understand, yet powerful toolset allowing you to jump right in! 

Key features:

• Use Animation Data Directly In Your Game. 


• Using keyframes you can quickly lay out major frame changes. Frames in-between the keyframes are then automatically created. You can then edit individual frames as desired to make your animations really shine. 


• Animations can be exported as spritesheets, animated GIF files, sequential images and more. 


• Reuse your previous animations by incorporating them in new ones. Create perfect, smooth transitions and varieties that save time by working with animations you've already created. 


• Adjust animation easing with several curve settings to help make your animations more lifelike. 


• Create pixel perfect retro style animations with Pixel Art Mode. 


• Spawn bullets, particle effects, or anything that requires precise locations and angles. 


• Set up guide lines and load in background images to work on top of. 


• Seperate characters into important collision areas. 


• Inverse Kinematics. 


• Change a bone's parent, add or remove bones, or even change sprite pieces mid-animation. 


• Import sound effects and even use lip-syncing with built-in Papagayo support.
