What's in this release
After a long time in development, Celas Studio launches into Early Access on Steam today.
Celas Studio is a 2D animation app built for illustrators and animators. Vector shapes, painted raster cells, bone rigs, a keyframe timeline and a camera all live inside one project file. Your drawing, its rig, and its animation never have to leave the app.
