I think it's less maintained than Aseprite\n\n\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Ftizee%2Fbuild-aseprite-from-source","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Ftizee%2Fbuild-aseprite-from-source","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Ftizee%2Fbuild-aseprite-from-source/lists"}
