PixelNote app for iPhone and iPad

Create your own 8-bit-style animations, pictures, and effects on a square pixel display with bits of code the size of a text message. Manipulate pixels, import photos, plot functions, make silly memes, and explore generative art.

Inspired by classic home computers and modern text-messaging apps, PixelNote gives you a 101x101, 256-color canvas which you control from a one-line command input field. PixelNote defines its own, compact, unique programming language, designed for compactness, experimentation, and challenge.

PixelNote comes with a set of examples to get you started, along with a full built-in reference guide to the language. Start with an example and modify it, or build your own; play around, try different things, see how they look. As you work, PixelNote keeps a history, so you can revisit your old code. Have fun!
