GraphicsGale is a proprietary raster graphics editor for Windows, created by HUMANBALANCE Ltd. It is designed to create and edit sprites and pixel art animations. Formerly a shareware software, it was released as freeware as of June 18, 2017.[1]. It was one of the six recommended programs in 2017 for pixel art by PC Gamer[2]. The program has been used by Paul Robertson and Ivan Dixon, in conjunction with Photoshop and Autodesk Animator, to create the pixel art animated intro for Rick and Morty, the animated series from Adult Swim[3][4].
