Unleash Your Creativity with Edge3 Pixel Art Software

Edge3 is a professional-grade pixel art editor designed for game developers and digital artists who demand power and efficiency. Built upon the legacy of Edge2 but completely overhauled for modern workflows, this software provides a robust suite of animation tools and palette management systems to help you create stunning, game-ready sprites with ease.

Advanced Animation Capabilities

Whether you are a traditional animator or prefer modern rigging techniques, Edge3 offers the flexibility you need. Our dual-workflow approach allows you to seamlessly switch between different styles of production.

• Build part-based animations by assembling individual sprite components for smooth movement.
• Craft classic frame-by-frame animations to achieve that nostalgic pixel-perfect look.
• Master your timing with intuitive onion skinning to reference frames accurately.
• Group and manage multiple complex animation states, such as walk cycles and attack animations, in a single project.

Professional Drawing and Editing Tools

Experience a high-performance drawing environment filled with features that minimize menu hunting and maximize productivity.

• Access a wide range of precision tools including Bézier curves, text, erasers, and advanced selection brushes.
• Speed up your illustration process with highly accessible shortcuts like right-click color picking and instant right-drag stamping.
• Perform real-time transformations, including scaling and rotation, to maintain total control over your pixel canvas.
• Utilize modifier keys for rapid actions like creating straight lines or filling areas without switching tools.

Color Palette Management for Pixel Artists

Color is the soul of pixel art. Edge3 makes managing your color libraries easier than ever, giving you full control over your aesthetic.

• Choose between indexed color modes with alpha transparency or standard RGBA workflows for more complex visual depth.
• Organize multiple color palettes and swap between them seamlessly to experiment with different themes.
• Apply unique color adjustments per frame to create advanced effects and fluid, polished transitions.

An Optimized Workflow for Game Devs

Edge3 is designed to accommodate the specific needs of professional sprite artists and indie developers who require custom-tailored workspaces.

• Configure your workspace with fully customizable toolbars, remappable keyboard shortcuts, and flexible docking panels.
• Use multi-view modes to edit your pixel art at a zoomed-in level while simultaneously monitoring the full-size output.
• Take advantage of multi-monitor setups by detaching view windows to maximize your effective creative surface area.
• Check visual symmetry and balance by flipping or rotating your canvas view instantly as you work.

Extensions and Compatibility

Edge3 supports an efficient workflow and is designed to integrate into your existing pipeline. We are also planning to release optional tools to enable thumbnail previews of your .edge3 files directly within Windows Explorer, making asset management faster and more intuitive. Please note that while Edge3 builds on the foundation of Edge2, it has been modernized with new specifications and improved behaviors to provide a superior user experience.
