I've realized I've never shown my 'Ashbad friendly' sprite editor to the rest of the community yet.  I might as well do that now

My LightWeight (LW) sprite editor is capable of doing 4 level grayscale sprite drawing with a simple UI that anybody can pick up in no time!  In fact, it's the best option for conceptual spritists who want to jot down quick 8x8 sprites -- similar to the monochrome version packed with axe releases, but faster and more responsive.

Controls:

Arrows - move
2nd - Draw black square
Alpha - Draw light gray square
Math - Draw dark gray square
Del - Draw white square
X² - Invert all colors on screen
Clear + ^ - hold both down to exit (so you won't ever accidentally exit without saving work!)
Enter - Exit and convert the screen to hex in Str1


Enjoy the utility that has been used in the development of many games, including Trio and Niko: Falling, Pyyrix's Most Excellent Adventure, The Journeys of Pyyrix the Thief, BiMbAlL!, and WallBall (axe version)!

Thanks, scout   Simplicity is always the answer to most things

sometimes I draw like that too, though for masked and 3-4 level sprites this has saved me considerable time

I think every calculator hacker in the world has made a sprite editor at some point.

I made PC, Python one, does that count?

I never did, not even a quadratic solver. I made several tilemap editors before, though.

Yikes. That's obnoxious.

Nice editor, Ashbad.
