How a Pixel Art Battle Works
Bring an idea. Add a little competitive spirit.
Let the pixels do the talking.
Receive the same prompt.
One shared idea, two separate pixel-art canvases. Decide how you will bring it to life.
Draw for five minutes.
Draw at the same time against the clock. Five minutes is the default; longer rounds are also available.
Reveal and compare.
See both drawings side by side. AI judging is designed to score how well each drawing matches the prompt.
Find Your Friend and Send an Invitation
Sign in and claim your @username. Open Friends, search for your friend’s username and send a request. After they accept and come online, choose a duration and invite them to a battle. Both players confirm readiness before the prompt is revealed.
Draw Together, Keep Your Own Canvas
Your friend’s drawing is a live preview; only you can edit your own canvas. Use the pencil, fill and shape tools to build your interpretation, then compare both drawings when the round ends.
Make Time for One More Round
Choose five minutes for a quick drawing game with friends, or agree on a longer round for a more detailed idea. After a finished battle, both players can request a rematch.
