Which graphics editor is best suited for developing 2d games?

Question

Graphic arts

Tell me, please, which graphic editor to choose for developing 2d games?
I would like to be able to draw a character or a game object as quickly and simply as possible.
I always dreamed of such an editor, which has a function that will help you draw something exactly in the center or select the distance in pixels from the edge of a shape.
For example, I drew a circle and I want to draw a nose exactly in the center. The nose can be complex and I would like to be able to highlight the borders of the nose that I would like to center.
Another option. I want to draw two eyes and place them in the center of the circle.
I heard that they often use the free GIMP editor. Does it have the features listed above?

Answer 1

I myself use Flash - there are all sorts of Snap to Guides \ Objects modes that allow you to conveniently position some objects relative to others. In addition, with vector sources it is easier to adapt to any resolution.

Answer 2

No, GIMP is not user friendly, more like Ps or Ai.

Answer 3

GIMP is no longer in trend, and has always been an amateur. From free I advise Krita. Developers do a lot just to simplify game design and in general, the program is developing rapidly. I don't even use Photoshop anymore, since Krita3.0 came out.
Here is a tutorial on creating graphics for games in krit: gdquest.com/game-art-quest/volume-1/krita-tutorial...
