Really good app!

This is a really good pixel art app! It is perfect for beginners, and pros alike! I didn’t get the app for what I am about to report, but I wanna say this anyway so maybe you can fix it. Whenever I search for something, using search, it crashes. This is the same case for my brother too, so maybe you can fix it in the future! But overall, 5 star app except the crashing.

Thanks for the review! 😊 I believe the issue may be related to 3rd-party drives, and the next update should fix it.

No Undo … Not ready for prime time.

Table stakes for an image editor is undo. Must be able to map it to a keystroke or action. The tool looks interesting otherwise, would love to revise this review if the product meets the minimum bar.

This sprite editor is phenomenal, but is missing some features that even free pixel art apps have. Here are some suggestions that I have.1. Resize canvas / artThis is probably the most basic one. Just being able to resize the canvas would be great.2. Import photoMaybe be able to import a picture from inside the editor or something?3. Animation?I’ve seen two apps so far that support animation within the app. That is all.4. issuesprites won’t export as transparentThat’s all I have. Other than these (especially number 1), this is a great app!

Thanks for the feedback! For #4, sprites do export as transparent, maybe you are exporting to a 3rd-party app that doesn’t support transparency?Contact me via my website and we can discuss further. 😊

10 out of 10 except for one thing. I’m trying to upload one of my sprites in the import tab but when I click the button it doesn’t do anything. I still love this app and it’s great for making simple sprites for coding games or animations
