Questions about this page
How were these alternatives selected?
Each candidate is a live catalogue record in the same primary category, picked by a deterministic score that Oryxen records in its catalogue: how many meaningful words the two listings share, whether their pricing classes oppose (a paid product against a free one), whether both are open source, and whether either record is featured. The same catalogue state always produces the same list — no randomness, no manual ranking.
Are these alternatives ranked by payment?
No. Rows are ordered only by the recorded score, highest first, with alphabetical ties — payment never influences the order, nothing here is paid placement, and Oryxen charges no listing or placement fee.
Always verify current terms with Pencil2D directly — Oryxen records pricing classes, not live quotes.
