Hey wanted to let you know I was testing out your Android version of this app and it doesn't work all that well with tablets/iPad size Androids. There might have have been like instructions on how to install for said devices that I haven't seen them or maybe they were hidden in the files either way works on my phone does not work all that well on my tablet

☺️☺️☺️

(1 edit)

That's odd, I myself primarily use it on an Android tablet (a Galaxy Tab S7 FE to be precise) and I'm not seeing any major issues, is it just the lack of install instructions?


*Just added Android install instructions into the "Download & install instructions" section that shows up when downloading files

maybe the instructions will explain what's going on with it I did download it through the Android fan installer the Mitch so maybe that file just kind of up and disappears on me 


program I also recall it not actually drawing anything

but I was able to move around enclosed tabs like the layers and the color selector

 I'll give it another try maybe download it through like the browsers instead of Mitch...

Thanks for your report, voidsprite should now be installable through Mitch.

To draw using touch, open the touch mode panel with `View` > `Open touch mode panel...`.  This lets you change what touch input does ("Pan", "Mouse Left" or "Mouse Right")

In the next update, I'll make it open automatically when using a touch screen.

Dawww! Thank you!!

Oh my God! This software is absolutely mind-blowing! I love it!

Pob: saves el contexto 👀

dame un pedazo de ese contexto 👀

good shit, i really appreciate seeing an rpg maker focused editor even down to including premade templates for rpg maker files :D

Hello, I liked the idea of the program, but I want a Linux version AppImage

Hello! We will do our best to provide an AppImage release next update. Could you, please, provide information regarding the distributive you are running?

and paint.net with plugins

Hello! This program only shares a similarity with Aseprite in the fact that both are graphical editing software. Could you, please, elaborate on why do you say so?
