I am working on Pixel Editor for retro graphics. What do you believe that ASE is missing? At the moment I am targetting the Zx Spectrum Next that I have recently backed. However if I get some compelling ideas I migth deviate from my original objective.

For retro graphics, definitely a palette editor and animation tool. Frame by frame animation is one thing. Bone animation is better. UV indexed bone animation is best. But there’s something fucking magical about palette animated backgrounds. Color cycling animation.

For an advanced palette editor (GIF class: 256 colours, one transparent) with first class support for color cycling, I suggest looking at FRACTINT.
