Paint, draw, and share your creations with others! ArtClash is currently in early access, with more features on the way.

We're not Sketchbook, Photoshop, Procreate, or Infinite Painter. We are ArtClash.

**ArtClash is designed to inspire daily drawing, sketching, and cartooning practice.**

This is a work in progress, with the first game complete, and more to come. You can free draw, select a topic or series of topics, apply optional constraints (like time limits, color palettes, or canvas size), create your art, and earn points for correct guesses from others!

**This is a solo project, created for my wife and me to practice daily, and to encourage others to do the same.**

**Current Features:**

• Paint, sketch, and blend
• Import images for reference or painting over
• Participate in topic-based challenges with constraints for bonus points
• 6 difficulty levels for topics, ranging from single words to five-word phrases
• Choose from three constraints: time, colors, or canvas size
• Free drawing and sharing capabilities
• NSFW flag for content filtering

**Current Early Access Issues/Bugs:**

• UI: The current Unity UI is less than ideal and will be replaced with XAML for improved responsiveness.
• Performance: On lower-end devices, keep canvases under 1024x1024. The brush engine is GPU-accelerated but slows down significantly with large canvases and small brushes. We are testing other engines for performance improvements.

**Upcoming Features:**

• More games (starting with a drawing-based "telephone" game)
• Enhanced social features (custom avatars, comments, friend system, following)
• Improved UI and faster brush engine
• Marquee selection and transform tools
• More brushes (custom brush texture support, user-submitted brushes)
• Advanced layer system (locking transparent pixels, masking, etc.)
• Developer communication system (feature requests, bug reports, voting)
• Moderators for content review
• Community topic and constraint submissions
• Future expansion to include full image editing, animation, scripting, and game/storyboard prototyping

Due to current performance limitations with large textures and the lack of full editing features, ArtClash is not intended as a complete image editing suite, but rather as a platform for social competition and artistic encouragement.
