Hello! So I am learning how to code now and I was wondering what the best animating tools are and how to learn them? I need something to make 8bit characters and backgrounds to try to make some basic games. I list of about 5-10 would be great! I am a beginner so I would need a guide that starts with the basics all the way to the more advanced! Thanks!

Oh man, go to blender.org and they have tons of tutorials. They have videos than will take you from zero to hero. They are well done and easy to understand. Good luck man!
You should check out Blender at blender.org. It's very powerful and it's free and open-source. Check out the site and some of the games and animations that people have made using it.
 


Thanks, any good tutorials you could link me? Or just search on Youtube?
