Hi HN! I built a free pixel art editor that runs entirely in the browser — no install, no signup, no watermark. The frontend is open source (MIT): https://github.com/comficker/simplepixelart What it does: - Sprite editor with layers, selections, mirror drawing, and an infinite-canvas workspace (multiple boards on one desk) - Frame-by-frame animation with onion skin, per-frame duration, GIF and spritesheet export - Tileset builder that auto-generates Wang-16 and blob-47 terrain sets from a single base tile — exports Godot 4 TileSet, Tiled .tsx, or PNG+JSON — plus a tilemap…

PixArmory▲12I built PixArmory, a browser-based AI image editor. It’s like a Swiss Army Knife: background removal, anime/cartoon filters, style transfer, and image upscaling in one place. Stack: Next.js + ShadCN UI, Cloudflare R2, Nano Banana, Creem.io for payments. Free tier: 3 edits, no account required. Paid plan: credit-based (e.g. $8.99 = ~50 images). Looking for feedback on which tools/features would be most useful to you.

My goal was to make generating retro-style or modern pixel art more accessible. You can type in a description (e.g., "a brave knight in a dark forest," "a futuristic cityscape at night," "a cute…
