I just wanted to let you know that #Pixly is on the Play Store now! pixly.meltinglogic.com/download #gamedev #pixelart pic.twitter.com/0mv3ImPqXw

@BarelyRealCAZ Hey, yes, Google has removed it because I haven't been updating it for a while. I want to eventually update it and bring it back up, but I dont have a timeline for doing that.

@Gtoknu hello, pixly seems to no longer be on the play store?

@Sharkcrome @Vynnyal I implemented gif importing, that should come out on the next release (check the roadmap for any news on the next release: trello.com/b/271M0NG9/pix…) On seeing the file before loading it: the next version will use the native Android file picker and a new file format.

@Gtoknu @Vynnyal Can I suggest adding the ability to import gif files ? also, to be able to view the picture itself not just the name of it I really love the freedom pixly gives me when making pixel art ♥️ but those 2 issues bug me :(

@KevlokD Hey Kevlok! I'm currently working on an update that should fix the biggest outstanding bugs when sharing files on modern phones. Keep an eye on the roadmap Trello board! trello.com/b/271M0NG9/pix…

@Gtoknu Hey tavo, you should really update pixly, it's been 4 years man, I really like your VERY simplistic application man.

@TheHungryGoat_ 🤷🏽‍♂️

@Gtoknu Will pixly ever be on the App Store

Finally got my racetrack generator to a playable state, definitely my proudest project. A few issues with clipping and UV stretching but still happy with it😆 #gamedev #unity fraser-curry-games.itch.io/race-track-gen…

@Sag3Zer0 Hey Dan! I love your interest in it, but I unfortunately don't have the time to port it over. I recommend trying out @aseprite on the surface, as it's also a great editor and has support for opening Pixly projects.

I recently got a surface pro and I really wanted to use Pixly on it. But the only option is useing it through BlueStacks. Which is miserable. Any chance of a Windows exe version? I would gladly pay for one.

@Gtoknu Im a huge fan of Pixley. Hands down my favorite sprite art program. I tell all my art nerd friends about it. It was very clearly created by somone with a deep love and adoration of pixel and sprite art. Ive been useing it on a Samsung note for about 5 years.

@MelloKenStories Hey! It's blurry because the gallery/shared app is trying to upscale it as a photo, not as pixel art. Try opening it on a computer with another art editor, or use lospec.com/pixel-art-scal…

@holdonroldan Hahahah os dois olhos na direita, mesmo com as orelhas em cima! Parece mais o controle Jigglypuff de Chernobyl

...coincidentemente, acabei de ficar sabendo da existência do controle jigglypuff de gamecube

às vezes eu me pego pensando nele o porão do gamecube

@cprosdoskimi Em tese funciona no PC já, o problema é que a usabilidade não é boa, foi feito pra touch mesmo 😬. Teria que refazer boa parte da UI pra ficar bom no PC, e não tenho muito tempo pra trabalhar nisso :(

@Gtoknu Cara seu aplicativo foi um achado... tu pensa futuramente lançar ele pra Pc ?

@Vynnyal Hey! Thanks for the words, I'm working to finish the new import/export system and the new file format, it's kind of the biggest change in this update! Sorry for the delay, it's going to be ready eventually, I'm usually only having time to work on it a few days a month...

@Gtoknu I love pixly so much and ngl, I have learned to work with the glitches almost seamlessly. I used Adobe for years this is nothing. But looking at the roadmap, the things you've already completed are desperately needed; any chance you can pop an update out with what ya got so far?

And some people say "NFTs are a way of supporting artists"...

@EnpaceMila It looks a bit different from how it works for me 🤔. Here's a screencap:

@Gtoknu I finally got it though it feels very odd to change it like this

@mario_fts I see why people like python and JavaScript, but honestly I treat them like the plague for this exact reason! JS is even worse because most of the time you'll have no idea it's not working properly, until it blows up.

Have you ever thought about how many times you tryed to build a project from 2 years ago and it just don't work anymore because you don't have the specific version of [insert tool name here] installed in you system?

Unpopular opinion: languages, tooling and frameworks without a strict policy of backward compatibility are the reason why developer's work is miserable.

@EnpaceMila Wow! First time I've ever seen that! Looks like your GPU ram got corrupted somehow? Pixly frames are stored in the textures in the GPU, if the phone runs out of vRAM, then things like this might happen. I'll check further, but can't promise this is fixable on my end.

@Gtoknu Just today, the glitches came more aggressive than ever and sabotaged me

@EnpaceMila Aaaaand I just created this ticket to take a look at the issue you just mentioned: trello.com/c/bN06Q3gA I never noticed it, since the Pixel only has a teeny-tiny bar, as it has gesture navigation instead of buttons.

@Gtoknu Man, Pixly has not aged well since 2017 to slightly recent devices (Xiaomi Redmi note 7) -Unchangeable eraser size and shape -Difficulties touching buttons -If you open while the Back /Home /Apps are on the screen, the stay like that, obstructin view -Visual glitches

@EnpaceMila I'm also fixing a bunch of stuff during my free time, and am about to release v1.8. If you want to check what I'm currently working on and vote/comment on tickets, take a look into the trello board trello.com/b/271M0NG9/pix…

I take back literally everything I said about Microsoft taking an interest in fixing their terminal. github.com/microsoft/term…

A few weeks ago I implemented a simple shadowmapping solution to try as a replacement for shadow rays during GI RT-ing. This got me thinking about ways to mix shadowmap and raytraced shadows. I wrote a blogpost documenting some quick experiments. interplayoflight.wordpress.com/2021/05/15/exp…
