I’m planning to start developing 2D games for web, iOS and Android (possible windows and mac too but not planning to in the near future).
I need to decide which tools/softwares is essential to get started (free if possible) :
1.2D Animation Tool?
2. 2D/Pixel Art or Drawing Tool (Vector and Raster)?
3.Any good 2D Assets I can use to get started in the Asset Store?
4 Any other good tools I haven’t mentioned?
Also, is there any good 2d C# game tutorial out there (text, video and PDF)?
Thats all my questions. I’m sorry if I ask too much
I highly recommend Aseprite as a 2D pixel art and animation tool. The newer versions are 10 dollars, but you can get older versions for free. They have documentation on their website for how to use it, and I find it to be really straight forward and easy to use.
Check out OpenGameArt.org for free prototyping assets, as well as the internet at large before buying anything.
There are tons of tutorials on YouTube about making 2D games in Unity with C#, as well as on Unity’s website.
