I'll be working with Unity3D 2017.2 on Linux!

Since I haven't used Unity3D for 2D games before, I wanted to make sure that I'm not going to google every second step when starting to work on a game for LD40. I also got myself much more familiar with Krita and learned how to use the integrated animation features - they're incredible! You can create a whole scene as usual in different layers and animate single layers to add some flavour. That way you're able to prepare a complete scene in all its beauty and export it as single sprites before using it in unity.
This is the best workflow for 2D I have found so far and it allows me to stay on Linux and use Open Source software whenever I can.
