Different Strokes has released on Steam! Get it here!

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 questionable art (though it's inevitable).

  • Explore a neverending, 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, 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 cover up / downvote the (inevitable) unacceptable art!

💬 We started a Discord Server!

Feel free to join to share your work, your favorites, and talk with other players/artists! 🖌️

We also made a website for the game. 😎


New version!

  • Added Undo (ctrl-Z) support
  • Added Paint Bucket Fill tool
  • Added "Share Link" button that gives you a URL to keep track of paintings.
  • Added brush size indicators
  • Added Settings Menu (press ESC or p)
  • Scroll to change brush size
  • New server architecture
  • Performance improvements

Thanks so much for playing, everyone! Everyone's paintings managed to slow down our servers enough to necessitate a rewrite, which I count as a good thing. Happy painting! 👩‍🎨
