Pixen is a professional pixel art editor designed for working with low-resolution raster art, such as those 8-bit sprites found in old-school video games. With features like a unique color palette system, patterns, layers, and high-zoom support, Pixen packs all the tools pixel artists need in an intuitive, Mac-native interface. Download Pixel Studio for pixel art for macOS 10.12.0 or later and enjoy it on your Mac. I don't usually use reviews but after considering multiple options for a prite maker this was it. I went free for awhile and it was still amazing but was impressed enough the app to buy the multiplatform version.
Download this app from Microsoft Store for Windows 10, Windows 10 Mobile, Windows 10 Team (Surface Hub). See screenshots, read the latest customer reviews, and compare ratings for Pix2d - Pixel Art Studio.
