Pixel Edit Lite: Create retro sprites and art

Create pixel art for TIC-80 & PICO-8 fantasy consoles with ease using our minimalistic 16X16 canvas sprite editor for iOS.

I got introduced to Pico8 sometime around 2020. I loved the minimalistic and resource constrained environment for creating retro style games. I wanted the simple pixel editor mobile so I could doodle sprites on the go while being away from the computer. This past few weeks I decided to bring that to reality with a simple MVP.

As a beginner in the pixel art world, I was searching for an app that would be both user-friendly and simplistic in terms of features. Pixel Edit Lite exceeded my expectations in every way. The app's interface is intuitive and makes it easy to access all the tools you need to create stunning pixel art. The color palette is vast, allowing you to choose from a rainbow of hues to bring your creations to life. And the grid system is a game-changer - it helps you maintain symmetry and accuracy as you work. While it may not have every single feature that you're looking for, it strikes a great balance between ease of use and functionality. Pixel Edit Lite is definitely worth considering if you're in the market for a pixel editing app.
