Inchworm Animation will be released for the handheld Nintendo DSi platform on April 25. The app will be available for download from the DSiWare store for 500 points (or $5). It looks to be a solid tool for introducing animation to the younger set but with enough functionality that may make it appealing to more advanced animators as well. It was developed by Austin, Texas-based Flat Black Films which created the rotoscope animation in Waking Life and A Scanner Darkly.

A list of Inchworm’s features:

- create multi-layer flipbook animations

- variable-thickness antialiased brushes

- use the camera for stop-motion & time lapse

- rotoscope by tracing on top of camera footage

- different layers can have different frame lengths

- circles, rectangles and polygons (w/ border)

- translucent color and pattern fill

- custom palette storage

- pattern editor

- individual animation frame timing

- onionskin

- 6 levels of zoom

- export to SD card (SWF, BMP sequence)

- work on images up to 9999 x 9999 pixels

- cut/paste to clipboard

- rescale clipboard images

- flip and 90-degree rotate

- undo

(Thanks, Pierre Fontaine)
