As you may be aware, [Pixelorama is coming to Steam!](https://store.steampowered.com/app/2779170/Pixelorama/) A great way to support our project is to wishlist it on Steam, and purchase it there when it's available. You can refer to our [FAQ](faq) to find out what's different in the Steam version.

## Q: What benefits does the Steam version provide?
A: Users who buy Pixelorama through Steam will enjoy the benefits that Steam provides to all of the games and software hosted there, such as automatic updates. It is also a great way to fund the project's development! Apart from that, there will be no other difference between the non-Steam version. All of Pixelorama's features will be the same in all versions, and all versions will receive the same updates. In other words, the Steam version will not be a "Pro" version. It will be exactly the same as the non-Steam version, just with the added benefits that come naturally from Steam.

## Q: Who is working on Pixelorama?
A: Pixelorama is being developed by [Orama Interactive](https://www.oramainteractive.com/), a game development team. Of course, Pixelorama would not be the same without the help of our beloved [contributors](https://github.com/Orama-Interactive/Pixelorama/graphs/contributors)!

## Q: What are the minimum system requirements to run Pixelorama?
A: Pixelorama is a relatively lightweight software and it should run on most devices, as long as OpenGL 2.1 / OpenGL ES 2.0 is supported. Please be aware that once Pixelorama v1.0 is out, these requirements will be increased to OpenGL 3.3 / OpenGL ES 3.0.

## Q: Does Pixelorama work on the Steam Deck?
A: It should! It works on Linux, so it should work on Steam Deck as well. Pixelorama also supports gamepad shortcuts, so you should be able to map the Steam Deck's buttons to actions such as undo/redo, copy, paste, etc. The reason we're not 100% certain is because we don't currently own a Steam Deck to test it ourselves.

## Steam
Pixelorama is coming soon to [Steam](https://store.steampowered.com/app/2779170/Pixelorama/) for Windows and Linux. It will become available once version 1.0 is out, and it will be paid, as a way to financially support the project.

If you wish to be kept up to date as to when it will be available, **please wishlist it on Steam**.
