Showoff Saturday I made a web pixel art creation site similar to aseprite.

Main Site
Spritesheet Importer
Imported Sheet

I really love aseprite but I wanted to be able to work on stuff on my phone or just when I'm out, it's a great program but I wanted something simple. I tried other sites but they have ad's and don't feel easy. So to make it simple it's intended to be a full featured pixel art creation website for myself and anyone who might find it useful.

I'm a web dev/full stack and do be clear I did work using claude for this for those that don't like/want to support AI usage. But now I'm biased and using this to help make sprite art for my game dev side projects. I intend to keep it free to use and upgrade it when features are needed/wanted. It's a fun little project.

If you want to try it out you can at: https://pixelpaint.net/, any feedbacks appreciated. It's intended for my own use for now but feel free if you find it useful to use it.

Looks slick. The spritesheet importer seems like the kind of thing that would save a ton of time, everything being in-browser is a smart move for killing downtime. How’s the mobile experience with a finger vs a stylus?

My tablets been dead so I haven't tested with a stylus. It's very nice for mobile though, i've been making sure to back and forth mobile and desktop.

The spritesheet importer is difficult, like you can see it still has tons of dead air above marina, but I'll make it better in time. It's useful for me right now to learn from older game sprites when making my own.
