Potential

This app has a lot of things going for it but it’s not quite there in terms of being able to call itself a professional pixel editor. There are several major oversights regarding having a pleasant workflow as well as the lack of some basic tools one would expect to find in a $10 pixel art app. As mentioned in the other review, selecting colors is an unintuitive, almost-painful process that seriously inhibits creativity/productivity. There is no straight line tool, nor are there any tools for drawing basic primitives. There are some UX oddities - layers are hidden in their own menu making them cumbersome to work with. I’d love to see this app reach its full potential - especially as it has some features I haven’t found in any other pixel art apps in the App Store, namely the ability to generate blob tilesets - although I’m not totally certain this feature has been implemented correctly. Nevertheless, generating tilesets straight from the iPad would be really awesome. I really hope the developer puts in some serious effort to get this where it deserves to be - it could be one of the best if the many issues were worked out.

Color selection is terrible

It takes to many steps to edit colors. No HSB color value option. No way of doing smooth color transitions

Response from developer

Thank you for the feedback. I will try to improve this based on your suggestions for a future release!

Can't open PNGs?

Importing existing graphics is cumbersome at best. Can't use in my workflow for this reason.

Response from developer

Please try V2.0 or greater. PNG's can be imported using the Import button on the toolbar.

I have a suggestion.

Can you add the Selection tool? it would be useful for like making a dance animation or something.

Response from developer

Thank you for your suggestion! I will consider this for an upcoming release.

Amazing app

Really happy with app, highly recommended for doing pixel art!

NO price mentioned up front

Left wondering if I will be charged with my iTunes money. 14 days free, then do I automatically get charged?

Response from developer

I’m sorry for the confusion. We have moved away from in-app purchases in order to eliminate this confusion. The app is now a one-time up front purchase from the App Store for all features.

cool

im sad that your not rated much i like the program

Response from developer

Thank you! We really appreciate the positive feedback!

Misleading price

Very MISLEADING: not actually free. A cost should be listed up front. Immediately after adding it I removed it.
