— a player, Steam review · 35 hrs played“This app has EVERYTHING. Any possible feature you might need is rolled up into one clean and intuitive UI. I wouldn't recommend anything else. It's clean, there are zero ads or any promos, runs super smoothly, perfect for anything I might need.”
— a player, Steam review · 84 hrs played“Originally I would have recommend this software to people but they decided to use peoples art to train AI if it's posted in the Pixel Network. I don't support nor trust any creative software or app that supports or uses AI. Once Aseprite goes on sell I'm planning to switch over.…”
