  • Amazing for a new artist, deserves your attention

    By XenoTeK (Pcmac user)

    I just recently got into pixel art. As a software developer I’ve always wanted to make games but felt lost when it came to creating assets. this app takes that fear away. It provides a great workflow when switching between the mobile and desktop versions, and all of the tools you need are just right there. I really hope the developer continues to support this app by adding new features.
  • Needs work

    By Lecti (Pcmac user)

    Artwork doesn’t save the latest edit, overwritten by previous edit that was lost by crash.
  • CRASHES!

    By UnkaT (Pcmac user)

    this app is the best app for pixel art and animation on OS X and I use it regularly for all my pixel art needs, but all it does is crash when I try and open it on my ipad Pro. What gives?! Happy to amend this review as soon as this problem is corrected.
  • Crashes

    By Dumbstart (Pcmac user)

    Just bought both this and the Mac app and the iPad app just crashes on my iPad Pro. Would love to try all this out since I just spent $20 to buy them both but the iPad app is a flop.
