Pixel art
For a project of mine I needed to create some pixel art.
I downloaded a couple of apps and visited a website or two and all of the options have ads and pretty unfriendly interfaces.
But in 2025 it’s so easy to build tools for yourself exactly the way you want.
This is a basic pixel art drawing program that took 15 minutes to make (with AI support) and supports the advanced features I need:
- Symmetry drawing
- Copying the image to clipboard
- Brush size slider
- Fill tool
My favorite feature is the symmetry drawing toggle, which makes it easy to do what I set out to do: little pixel spaceships.
