Feature Snapshot

Pixel drawing with Apple Pencil

Use the Pencil for direct marks on the pixel canvas. Pixelart.to keeps the workflow focused on drafting, editing, and exporting small assets instead of opening a large desktop production setup.

Fast canvas sizes for sprites and icons

Common sizes such as 16x16, 32x32, 64x64, and 128x128 are available from the app. They are small enough for manual control and large enough for game characters, items, avatars, and early scene drafts.

Useful for game assets

The best fit is quick asset work: character fronts, slime enemies, potion icons, inventory items, UI badges, and placeholders that help a prototype move forward.

Edit by hand after AI generation

AI can create a starter sprite, but the important step is manual cleanup. Treat the generated result as a draft layer or reference, then adjust silhouettes, colors, outlines, and transparent edges by hand.

Export PNG and continue elsewhere

Export a PNG when the draft is ready. You can import that file into Godot, Unity, a web game, Aseprite, Photoshop, or another editor later.

How It Works

  1. Choose a canvas size such as 16x16, 32x32, 64x64, or 128x128.
  2. Draw from a blank canvas or generate a starter sprite.
  3. Edit the pixels by hand with layers, palettes, and simple tools.
  4. Export a PNG and continue in your game engine or professional workflow.
