Why draw pixel art in the browser

Start in seconds

No installer, no sign-up, no license key. Open the page and you're on a canvas — handy on shared or locked-down computers.

Your work saves itself

Every change auto-saves in your browser, so closing the tab doesn't lose your drawing. Download a .spritepaint file to keep a backup or switch computers.

Share with a link

Create a link to your animation in one click. Anyone can open it and watch it play — no account needed on either side.

Download when you're done

Export PNG, GIF, sprite sheets, or MP4 video straight from the browser, scaled up as much as you like.

Great for classrooms and Chromebooks

SpritePaint runs entirely in the browser, so it works on school Chromebooks without IT installing anything. Students don't need accounts or email addresses to use it.

Ideas for a pixel art lesson

Pixel self-portrait: a 16x16 avatar using no more than 6 colors.
Design a game item: a sword, potion, or coin at 16x16, then add a 2-frame shine animation.
Symmetry practice: turn on mirror drawing and design a creature, mask, or spaceship.
Flipbook animation: a bouncing ball in 6–8 frames, using onion skinning to line up each frame.

Students can submit work as a PNG or GIF download, or paste a share link into your class platform.
