    Open-source pixel art editor with animation and auto-tiling tilesets▲8

    Hi HN! I built a free pixel art editor that runs entirely in the browser — no install, no signup, no watermark.

    I built an Free AI tool to generate pixel art from text descriptions▲21

    Hi HN, I'm excited to share a project I've built: PixelateImage.org. Instead of being a traditional image editor, this is an *AI-powered tool that generates pixel art directly from your text prompts.* If you've ever wanted to create unique pixel art characters, scenes, or assets for games, art projects, or just for fun, but perhaps lacked the specific artistic skills or time, this might be for 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…
