There's an older mac version that is no longer maintained but it's free. I'm on mobile rn but you can search the comments below to find the link i posted somewhere (Google drive link)
amazing software. for the time being I'm just dabbling in pixelart, but if i decide to get serious I'll definitely buy the commercial version. And even if I don't I'll donate something. kudos to the developer!
Hello, i dont have a way to restore old licenses and the old pp account is no more. So you can just use the free version, dont worry about it, and if its important for you to have a license file you can email me at ronenness@gmail.com and ill just give you one that comes with the itchio commercial version. (you don't really need but if you want- no problem just email me).
Hi! Great program which I would love to use, but will there be a macos/linux build, or is demand not high enough so the support won't be provided?
I'm a software dev which would love to use this software for my personal projects, yet I feel like most software devs use linux/macos for development mainly and switching from one system to another just to use one piece of software would be a bit of a chore
hello, there's an old Mac and Linux versions that are no longer maintained and if they work you can use for free. I'm not on my pc right now but you can find the link somewhere in the comments below its a drive link.
Hello, just a quick question: is it possible to pay for the Pixelator license in Brazilian real? I apologize, but I'm not from the United States and don't reside there. I intend to use Pixelator to help create textures and sprites for my commercial games; however, I currently only use the personal version. Can you provide me with some information on this?
Hi no idea what payment methods and currencies itch.io support, it's between you and itch.io they just pass me the money at the end of the transaction.
If you're unable to buy for any reason just use for free (even commercially) its alright.
hey really cool software.....i just donated you 2 dollar, sorry cant afford more but is it possible that i later pay the missing 23 to obtain the commercial edition, as i really think this is the best pixelation tool on itch ! thumbs up
Is there a 32-bit version, My PC recently got corrupted and I have been having problems upgrading it to 64-bit . so I thought I'd stick with 32-bit for a while. so if there is a 32-bit version please let me, otherwise no need to
Hey bro, I'm under 18 and I was just wondering, how do you do make it commercial? You can't install the commercial version first if you don't have the money, but I'll try.
There are mac and linux versions but they are super old and not maintained anymore, if you manage to make it work feel free to use it (don't buy a license since its not supported version)
You could make the MacOS version paid only (meaning there's no personal edition). This would give you an incentive to port the new version to Mac and Mac users would be more than happy to pay for this awesome product.
Hello, im very gratefull about people less than 18 years can use free the comercial version but my game will be ready after i reach my 18, i still can use commercialy arts previously generated for free? Please say yes :(
Hey, quick question. I previously purchased your Pixelator from the site (now you moved to itch.io) and the version I have reads as 1.06 and claims it is up to date when I check the update button -> but this version is 1.08. Where there any meaningful changes between 1.06 and 1.08 that should warrant an upgrade?
On a side note - this is a really cool tool you made. I used it a ton for hobby projects and it's extremely fun to change a basic 3D model into 2D pixel sprites.
You have earned my respect for your actions in letting this be free commercially for devs under 18. I'm 14 and trying to get into gamedev. This helps a lot. :)
Just a question... If I download personal version just for some tries and comparisons and after a while I decide I want to use its output commercially, can I just buy a license and use them, or I will have to redo them? (Sorry if its a stupid question, im quite a newbie developer)
Thanks so much for providing this for free to people under 18. I just turned 19 but I've been using this program for a really long time, it's fantastic! I'll be buying a license soon! :)
result image can either be the size of the input image or smaller (there's a checkbox to determine that) but can't be larger.
If you need to just scale up the image you can use any photo editing software to scale it, just make sure you use nearest neighbor filtering so it won't get blurry, and that you increase size in round factors so that pixels will duplicate evenly. But if you do that - ask yourself first if you really need the source image larger and not just scale it in runtime in whatever platform you present the image on?
If you need to scale up the image with actually adding more details to it, and not just duplicate pixels, that's something Pixelator can't do. Adding details to scale up image is a whole different thing and usually involves ML

Hi! Sent you an email (on february 1) with paypal screenshot and transaction id, still waiting for your answer, thanks
Hi, good thing you told me because your email ended up in spam folder (probably link + screenshot made gmail upset lol).
I replied now with a license, let me know if you somehow didn't get it. Thanks!
Thank you so much!

YOU ARE AWESOME!
Ten outta ten, knocked it outta the park.
hey really cool software.....i just donated you 2 dollar, sorry cant afford more but is it possible that i later pay the missing 23 to obtain the commercial edition, as i really think this is the best pixelation tool on itch ! thumbs up
hi man if you can't afford it just use it for free no worries about it! To be clear- including commercial.
thank you soo much :) but i promise to come back @ you donating more once i can, this software really deserves it <3
sent you 15 dollar more as promised :) still love your tool
Thanks <3
No need for any more and best of luck with your project!
thank you :) ive also recommended your tool to some of my friends who like to create pixel art
Is there a 32-bit version, My PC recently got corrupted and I have been having problems upgrading it to 64-bit . so I thought I'd stick with 32-bit for a while. so if there is a 32-bit version please let me, otherwise no need to
Sorry about your pc, unfortunately no theres no other version to provide..
HeyHo. Just got your tool and wanna say it´s amazing. Gonna use it a lot!
And a good work must be paid! So I did :P
Thanks
Hi, great program, how do get commercial licence, not sure how it works. Thanks
License comes with the files when you download the paid version. Thanks
Hello! Imagine, I have used your tool for commercial. How do you found me?
Theoretical question
You forgot to add "asking for a friend" to sound less suspicious :D
Don't worry I couldn't care less if people pirate this software and I'll make no attempt hunting you down if you do.
Ofc I prefer to get paid, but truth is preventing piracy just doesn't worth the time and effort for a private individual like me.
So do whatever you feel is right. I will never know. But you will always live in fear that maybe I lied.
Nice and honest answer, appreciate
i might just be dumb, but i can't seem to make the game run at all. let me know if you want more information to help me please.
Hi can you share more details?
Hey bro, I'm under 18 and I was just wondering, how do you do make it commercial? You can't install the commercial version first if you don't have the money, but I'll try.
Just use the free version if you're under 18 don't worry about it!
Nice, bit too body focused IMO but sure everything has its flaws and that's not exactly a big one.
.. Linux sometime? <3
There are mac and linux versions but they are super old and not maintained anymore, if you manage to make it work feel free to use it (don't buy a license since its not supported version)

LINUX

Thanks for a great tool!
this is just the coolest thing since we found out about fire! I'm going to be using this to create doom enemies!
Great tool, Thanks!
Updated MacOS version, please?
You could make the MacOS version paid only (meaning there's no personal edition). This would give you an incentive to port the new version to Mac and Mac users would be more than happy to pay for this awesome product.
Second this. Right now I have the old mac version with no way to upgrade the license
make a mobile version
Hello, im very gratefull about people less than 18 years can use free the comercial version but my game will be ready after i reach my 18, i still can use commercialy arts previously generated for free? Please say yes :(

Will this be developed further with new features ?
Just a question... If I download personal version just for some tries and comparisons and after a while I decide I want to use its output commercially, can I just buy a license and use them, or I will have to redo them? (Sorry if its a stupid question, im quite a newbie developer)
yeah you can do that no worries :)
I am quite Impressed with this.
This is great! Is it possible to not get an "old school" color palette, but instead keep all exact colors shadesfrom the original image?
Put colors count on 0 to not refuce colors to a palette
Thank you!
neat software. too bad i didnt find it last year lol
This looks incredibly cool! Are you using your own magic sauce or a published algorithm? I'm interested in the topic and this looks pretty good
Thanks! I use my own algorithms. It's not ML or AI or anything like that just good old pixels manipulation ;)
The auto color palettes though isn't mine, that's part of the PIL library.
where the hell is buy license ?
I'm still 17 sooo yay
yeah you don't need a license if you're under 18 :)
Anyway to buy a license you just buy the paid commercial version from this page.
Cheers
aight ty
Thanks so much for providing this for free to people under 18. I just turned 19 but I've been using this program for a really long time, it's fantastic! I'll be buying a license soon! :)
When I export pixel img it is too small size. where can I change the resolution? I need HD size pixel img
Hi vizooall,
result image can either be the size of the input image or smaller (there's a checkbox to determine that) but can't be larger.
If you need to just scale up the image you can use any photo editing software to scale it, just make sure you use nearest neighbor filtering so it won't get blurry, and that you increase size in round factors so that pixels will duplicate evenly.

Wish there was a Mac os version :(
There is, but its old. Check out other comments here i posted the link somewhere
Long shot: does this program convert to the Chrono Trigger - Trials of Mana style?
hey! Can i use the personal version for game jasms
If the game is not commercial - yes. If it is, please get a license :)
哇，谢谢你。我还有一年就满18周岁，到时候会购买商业版:)
