About the Game

🎨 Overview

Painting Pixels is a relaxing paint-by-number game where you fill in images one color at a time. Inspired by other games in the genre, it focuses on larger levels and extensive customization to suit any playstyle.

🖼️ Content

There are over 170 levels ranging from 50x50 pixels to 500x500 pixels (and one larger "final boss" level 😈). Most of the level packs are separated by theme. There also may or may not be a secret or 2 hidden in the game...

⚙️ Features

Make the experience your own with a wide range of customization options:

  • Adjust colors for the background, UI, pixels, and more

  • Toggle gameplay features like locked completed pixels and color highlights

  • Simplify the interface by hiding unwanted UI

  • Switch tools — use a brush or a paint bucket for faster filling

*Mac and Linux versions of this game are available but not extensively tested. Steam Deck compatibility has not been tested but it should be playable if a computer mouse is being emulated (touch screen input will probably create bugs).
