Summary:
This week, we’re covering the basics of the animation workflow in Aseprite, and how to use the timeline tool, frame timing, looping, tags, and onion skinning to create seamless animations. We'll learn how to make basic idle animations as a warmup, then create our very own top down animated player sprite with 4 directional movement.
