Aseprite is an absolutely fantastic program and I highly reccomend it for any and all interested in the pixel art workflow.

PROS:
-great and intuitive user interface, though can be a bit distracting for new users at first
-excellent feature set specialized for pixel art, including a rotoscope layer feature that will let you scale images under the pixel grid
-always adding new features upon request from the community
-nearly unlimited storage for ctrl-z operations
-option to add custom scripts (though I've yet to see people utilizing this)

CONS:
-the pen tools are strictly binary, so if you prefer using an aliased brush you're a bit hard pressed.
-occasionally has some visual glitches with the move tool, can usually be solved by zooming in and out again
-Again, lack of people making examples of user scripts
-Could use a more detailed documentation page on the website for the more exotic features hidden in the menus and examples of uses for same

Overall 10/10 program, and the best I've ever used for my chosen craft.
