Pixel art and sprite editors

This cluster comprises 11 products centered on creating, editing, and animating pixel art and sprites for game development, with tools ranging from desktop editors to online ones. Their dated history is thin: 2 entries in May 2020 and single entries spread through late 2025, so no clear trend can be discerned. Traction is essentially flat, with the leaders Pixelorama, voidsprite, and popcornfx-editor each showing 0 stars.

Each bar is the month a member carries, which is a creation date where the source published one and a crawl date otherwise. Nothing in the index was found before 11 August 2026, and coverage broadened sharply on 14–15 August, so a bar from then on reports how much we found that month, not how much was built; an earlier bar reports how far back a member's own source dated it — not how long we have been watching.
