What's New in Sprite Something

2.15

September 16, 2025

Wow, this program has been out for 15 years! Updated to work with modern iOS devices. Dropbox integration has been removed, as it has not been working for a long time. Sorry, but Flashpunk and Flixel have also been cut.

My review

I hate it I can’t even figure out the tools and it’s a pain so I think
It should be easy so I can understand it because I just can’t seem to operate this

No Updates in 7 years…

Is this app no longer supported or running on current iOS?

Was a cool app…

Keeps freezing and crashing since last iOS update

On any given day, I would rate Sprite Something 5-stars. It’s truly the BEST program to draw and animate 2D sprites for game development. Unfortunately, since the most recent iOS update - Sprite Something now has random freezes/crashes that completely wipe the progress you’ve made on a sprite. When these freezes/crashes don’t occur, it’s a fantastic program worth the asking price. I have been using Sprite Something for quite some time on my iPhone 11 Pro Max, and I don’t want to switch to another sprite creation app. Please, please — fix the issues plaguing this release! By the next major iOS upgrade (if no fixes ever materialize to address the aforementioned issues), I fear Sprite Something will end becoming another broken app that was once considered great, but could have been so much more.

Was great…until no longer able to export your art work

Been using this app for indie 2D game art for 6 years! It has been great for what I use it for, HOWEVER the app does not appear to be updated anymore by its developer! Now you cannot export your art work at all anymore. The email export no longer works and the drop box export no longer works at least not with IOS 13 and newer which excludes anyone with I phone 8 and up!

Underrated no-frills pixel editor

This app is not for people who want to play at painting with pixels, rather it has a decent (albeit clunky) toolset that you can use to make not just 8-bit sprites, but sprite atlases/sheets for active use in video game production.

Perhaps it's biggest let-down is that it's not for the novice, so people with a passing interest in making pixel art may be put off but its no-frills interface.
