Different Strokes
🖼️ Everyone's favorite collaborative online painting game! 🖌️
We started a Discord Server! 💬
Feel free to join to share your work, your favorites, and talk with other players/artists! 🖌️
⭐ 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!

Hi guys! Does deluxe let you see what edits people end up doing to your stuff? Main reason I would want it other than drafts

This is a really trash screenshot but it's the only one I got before I accidentally closed the game
first press G for a paintgun and then shoot randomly to reveal a hidden parcour. its really hard i spend a good 30m to get up but unfortunatly i coulndt do it. (sorry for bad english)

My morning routine:
Wake up
Check Different Strokes
Go to school
Ignore all my work and just play Different Strokes. (How am I not failing? I say it's probably different strokes)
A few Different Strokes of luck
me too i just do that
This is such a cute idea and I love all the creativity! I wish i could draw though :(
everyone can draw, it doesnt have to be good. The whole point is to see the art of amatuers, its cool!
SO FUN, unfortunally i no longer can upload? It might be a bug or if there has been a miss-click among admins. (my @ is Kairus)
nvm! I just didn't see that the upload button isnt always up
You have to have 10 strokes first
BEST GAME EVER i wish i can see the players:(
omg, we on that speedrunning grind now 🔥🔥🔥🔥 🗣🗣🗣🗣
I may have died, but I'm glad I was able to finally hit that orange thing
but what happind next

I can't tell if this is an insult or not
Huh, didn't even know you could get a game over,,, Welp, guess I won't be doing thatagain
Woa, how? I figured there is some lore after talking to the npc's, but i can't seem to get anywhere with it
There's like a weird diamond shaped thing floating around sometimes, looks pretty shootable doesn't it?
shoot it
Gosh darn beautiful game!!! It's fun! It's an amazing game if you feel like being creative but you also have artist's block!
This game is so cute and entertaining! I just wish there was a way to put a painting under your name after creating an account. I painted and went to make an account so save it, but I was unable to </3
hehehe rlly enjoyed this! and really poured my boredom and made me try digital art for the first time! great game overall and luv it <333 (I got lazy lmfao)
erm.... I cant find it just like disappear?? (this was after I made a acc cus I didn't see it until I finished and explored)
