⭐ Deluxe Edition ⭐
To help pay for server costs we have introduced a Deluxe Edition that includes several special features: 9 exclusive colors! smaller brush sizes brush smoothing straight line tool canvas zoom studio room for viewing your paintings/liked paintings painting easel for saving draft paintings We really need your support to keep this game running so we hope you'll consider making this one time donation to unlock the latest features!
Your friend, a conceptual artist, has invited you to their latest exhibition.
You enter expecting to see their art adorning the walls, but to your surprise, the VISITORS are the ones drawing the art — they’re even drawing over each other’s work! It’s up to you to protect the exhibition from being covered in artwork that is, intentionally or otherwise, truly awful.
- Explore a never-ending, ever-expanding gallery full of user-generated art — and snarky guests!
- Add a new layer to art that needs a redo!
- Draw new art to fill the exhibition!
- Rate art to boost the good and hide the bad!
All of the art exhibited in the game is 100% created and remixed and rated LIVE by other players. Yes, we host all of this art and load it in dynamically. We hope that you will choose to fix the (inevitable) unacceptable art!
In addition to the main gallery there is also a portal to the "gallery of the week". Every week there will be a new gallery with a particular theme. The main gallery is pretty crowded so your art may have a better chance of standing out in the gallery of the week!

for some reason all the gallery was on blank and couldn´t paint anything, so I´d started to vandalize the place with the paint gun and paint splashes (G and V) to give everything a touch of color, when suddenly came some strange blue and black float triangle, I painted it with the gun and it multiplied itself and attacked me. I lose the game ksjdhdsk I didn´t even know I could do that
This is actually incredibly cool. New obsession unlocked
Edit: Here is a really quick doodle I made of my favorite character.
Pen pressure doesn't seem to be working for me- I'm using an xp-pen screen tablet on windows 11, I've tried it with both windows ink on and off. Any ideas?
Bruh how come when I shoot one of those blue flying arrows with the paint gun and starts multiplying and and come after you and then they cover your screen and say "game over"? Why is that? Is that some sort of prank?
how do you get the paint gun
G for paint gun and V for paint splash
Yooo that actually works what. Did not know that was an option
It wouldn't let me create an account and all the galleries were empty, I was really excited for this game :(
have a good day and life everyone!![](https://img.itch.zone/aW1nLzE2ODk5Nzg2LnBuZw==/original/299%2B1i.png)
This is such a cute idea and I love all the creativity and cool stuff in the comments
I drew Noisemaster from Cucumber quest :) This is my first time drawing on here and its pretty fun
i wish i could play this on my ipad since thats where i do all my art and drawing with a mouse is very very hard :( its very cool to just walk about and see all the cool art tho
im a huge bfdi fan :3 i was really nervous about drawing with a mouse and end up ruining the og artist's work.. i think it turned out well though !! first time recreating someone's art in this game ^U^
very fu
What the world needs.

Is there any way to change my password/delete my account? I lost my password for my account and would like to use an account on this.
there's a post about how to do this in the announcements channel on the discord
Cool game, but how do I delete my account in this?
Hey, I love this game! I just had a question..Somebody edited one of my drawings and made it very NSFW, any way to fix that or report it? Thank you :)
honestly one of the best online games ive played as of late, I love seeing peoples art
me to some art are just incredible.
please makea a deuluxe apk
could you also make a android deluxe version? By the way, the control on mobile version is not so smooth and convenient
it exists, if you send them your email you paid for deluxe on they can enable it on android.
Does it count if i bought deluxe version on steam?
i think so!
I love this i love this i love this i love this!!!!!

ive seen some funky things in The Gallery
i like it uwu
O_O
i fell through the floor when I went into the hall of fame :(
Sometimes when i try to fix art it wont give me the option to send the fixed art. how do i fix it?
you need to add at least 10 strokes onto the original I'm pretty sure this is so you don't just add nothing and say you did something to it. I hope this helps!
I wish you could like the originals... Some "fixes" adds just some lines on the og.
I think i went too far![](https://img.itch.zone/aW1nLzE2NTAxNzE0LmpwZw==/original/wKXPYV.jpg)
