Why not make Aseprite free if the source code is already out for free?

Thanks @Glitcher for your kind words, about your points:

  • Could the market eventually get saturated one day? That’s the answer that nobody knows :sweat_smile: The only thing I guess is that if that happens, we would notice it in a slow drop in sales.
  • Our only income are new users, that’s right. Anyway we don’t have to underestimate that. The number of new pixel-artists and game developers in the world per year (in schools, at home, on teams, etc.) is quite large.
  • About the business model, I’ve considered many options in these years, but one thing is true: There are no plans to change it while it works.
