Palette Snap for Aseprite

Palette Snap is an Aseprite script that instantly remaps your artwork to your currently loaded palette, snapping every pixel to your nearest valid palette color with one click.

Perfect for:

• Cleaning up stray or off-palette colors
• Homogenizing widely different assets
• Converting imported art to a limited palette
• Enforcing palette discipline for pixel art
• Recoloring sprites and tilesets
• Preparing old assets for a different color theme
• Artists working with a wide variety of sized assets

Content & Features:

• Two light weight, fast Lua scripts for Aseprite
  • Single Frame Palette Snap Script - snaps the selected frame of your drawing to your loaded palette.
  • All Frames Palette Snap Script - snaps all frames in the project to your loaded palette (ideal for changing an entire animation to your current palette). 
    • A completion confirmation box will pop up once the action is completed.
  • Instructions on how to install the scripts
    • FYI... it's super easy, just drag and drop them into your script folder and then reload (F5).

Overall, this is great for sprite artists, animators, and game developers working with strict palettes.

“I always had issues drawing in pixel art when I started out. Some works of art I just couldn’t even attempt, thankfully, Itch has a wonderful community of artists who often offer their art as free assets on the site. The caveat to this is all of these arts/assets use different color palettes, so when you’re trying to bring a project together, nothing is on a homogenized palette. Everything looks off, and changing every pixel by hand is of course not a sane path forward. And so I personally battled with this for years, and ended up creating a couple scripts to deal with that, aka Palette Snap.” ~ Drake Vandelheart
