Pixaki 4 Intro

Ideal für pixelart und super sinnvoll auf das iPad optimiert. Kann man sich kaum besser vorstellen. 30€ für die vollversion ist total fair.

…. Ich finde die Vollversion einfach zu teuer. Ich kann verstehen, dass die Entwickler Zeit und Arbeit in die Entwicklung investiert haben. Nichts desto trotz sind 27€ für das was es ist schon ziemlich krass. 18-20€ würde ich ebenfalls etwas happig finden aber vertretbarer als den jetzigen Preis. Sollte es jemals einen Rabatt geben, bin ich dabei aber so bleibe ich bei der Konkurrenz.

As a Minecraft Partner, I do most of my work on a PC. However, I love my ipad for working on the go. I have tried almost every pixel art app on here for making textures to use in game. We do 16 x 16 textures or 32 x 32. This is hands down the best app for my workflow. I made a draft texture and put it in game. The color match was true…something I haven’t found in other apps. I fail to understand all of the complaints here. This is an intro/demo. It was never intended to have all the bells and whistles. I will be purchasing the pro version when i am done with this review. The $27 for pro is a lot better than an Adobe subscription for simple pixel art. I also do not understand the comparisons to Procreate. It isn’t meant to be like Procreate, so why would it? I am extremely pleased with this app.

i’ve been using medibang for my pixel art (although i admit it was never meant for pixel art lol) and i’ve been meaning to migrate to this app. but there are a few issues that feel more like me nitpicking at certain things than anything 1. the zoom-up grid: when you zoom up to +2,500 magnification there’s this grid, if there was a way to turn it off in settings that would be neat 2. pallet presets: maybe have a new filetype for pixaki color pallettes so people on mobile that don’t have access to abobe photoshop and pasc paintshop pro can make and share color pallets could open up a lot of avenues to creativity. other than those, it’s a great app. i like the ui, too.

I had a lot of fun using this. It’s more intuitive than Procreate for me, though that’s likely because this has a more focused feature set. I wish we could get just one additional layer, but this is free software and considering the niche and overall user experience, I think the Pro version will be worthwhile. Really impressive work, especially for a solo dev :) Giving it 5 stars to counter the cheapskates, but I found one annoyance: I kept accidentally triggering the color picker whilst filling in shadows. I tend to apply too much pressure with the pen, so I wish there was a way to disable that gesture - assuming I didn’t overlook it. EDIT: Found where to disable the color picker gesture in the settings, and decided to buy the full app :)

i hardly rate apps but wow, i had to with this one. i’m just starting to get into pixel art, and this app does everything - its incredible and so easy to use! when i feel more advanced, i will 100% be getting the pro version. thank you so much for making this app!!

This app is so good, it makes me wonder what the paid for version much be like! Perfect brush, intuitive layout, and wonderful animation mechanics! It’s a dream for a beginner pixel artist like me and the exporting makes it even more perfect for the game I hope to start working on soon! I’ll come back with a review of the paid for version when I can afford it!

Does the pro version crash like this? I open the gallery and crash. I add keyframes, crash. After a few more hours I noticed it crashes Everytime I try to export after adding keyframes. Thank God I didn't work on drawing them out, was just testing. But you got More crashes than any app I've ever tried out. I run musical equipment thru my same ipad, heavy workload, never crashes. Just saying. I want to buy the pro version because I believe in small teams, non subscription business models and cool art but the crashes...

The pro version is too expensive and this version is too basic. If you have a drawing tablet that connects to a pc/laptop just get an app there instead. iPads arent the best for pixel art and this app proves it.

Update: after joining the discord and seeing how much effort the developer is putting into improving the Pixaki app and pixel art community, I have bought the full app, hopefully the app continues to have a long and fruitful life. I know this is technically the demo version but so far this is hands down the best pixel app on the ipad! Sadly the full version is about $27 which is a bit pricy for a ipad app when there are dedicated pixel art cpu apps like Aseprite ($19), and full blown digital painting apps which can be used for pixel art like Procreate ($13, although i admit Procreate lacks basic pixel art functions) I would love the full version but as of right now im not sure if the hefty price tag of $26 is reasonable. If it were a bit closer to it competitors price range then i wouldn't hesitate.
