I figured it's time to share the tools I use daily to make my indie games as a fulltime game developer. None of these apps have or are sponsoring me so this is an unbiased list of the tools I simply like to use. Please read the licensing for each of the apps before you use them so you can fully understand if the app fits for your use case.
