Disclaimer & license
This is the part where you usually put a lot of legal stuff that nobody reads. I'm not a lawyer, so I'll just make it simple, using my own words rather than some pre-crafted text that will bore you to death and that nobody but a highly paid lawyer would even understand anyway:
I take no responsibility for issues caused by this software/tool. I do my best to ensure that everything works fine. If something goes wrong, my apologies.

Animation exporter for games Free
Unim / Canim
UNIM is an Adobe Animate CC animation exporter that is lightweight and efficient.
It supports sprite swapping, individual sprite color operations, and sprite tracking (generally used for particle FX). It's perfect for mobile and HTML5 games and can handle the kind of high-level animation you'd normally see on high-end consoles.
Runs in your browser Free
Pencil Test Plus
An experimental animation tool that lets you draw right on top of your animation while it's playing!
If you've ever watched traditional animators at work, you'll notice that they continuously flip the animation paper to watch the movement in action. Pencil Test Plus tries to mimic that traditional style of flipping animation paper.
Protip: look closely at the hotkeys panel and you might find a little cheat code 🙂
