Stykzofrania!

Here's a fun and simple way to tell stories in pictures!

Stykz animation is a powerful tool that is easy to use. The stick figure animations are created quickly and efficiently. In creating animations, people, animals, letters and objects can be added. Once added they can be moved and bended a little in each frame resulting in an entire movie!

FEATURES:
  • Figures drawn can be rotated, coloured, scaled of flipped.
  • Creating and editing of figures takes place directly. No additional editing window appears.
  • Multiple documents can be opened at the same time and editing done between them.
  • A "Hints" window is available when using tools.

  • Figures can be saved for re-use.

A Demonstration of the software and tutorials are available below.
