They're also going to be adding the ability to use brushes like photo shop and create custom brushes in the next update so its becoming an all purpose art tool. Originally posted by Peppered Pig:Both are great in their own way but lately I've been preferring Hexels 3 over Aseprite after working with both.įor Hexels 3, it has alot more features like more effects and the ability to combine pixel and vector art and create alot of interesting designs.

Aseprite for animations and shading and Hexels 3 to do drawings, and effects. So I'll probably end up using both programs.

I found a nice workflow to import Aseprite files into Unity as I work on files in Aseprite. Although, Aseprite has a great animation work flow allowing you to tag certain animation frame sets and really allow you to easily tune things around. I found it difficult to play around with colors since I have no way to bring up a dedicated color interface and mess around with HSB settings.

I don't have any issues on my desktop PC.įor Aseprite, the UI got really annoying and jarrying to use. It tends to lag more with my laptop which could get annoying while drawing. Although Hexels 3 is also missing some tools that Aseprite has like a symmetry tool or the ability to easily shade colors but its not that big of a deal. Vector layers merged with pixel layers will be rasterized to pixels first.Both are great in their own way but lately I've been preferring Hexels 3 over Aseprite after working with both.įor Hexels 3, it has alot more features like more effects and the ability to combine pixel and vector art and create alot of interesting designs.
