Hi everyone,
I'm super interested in making pixel art, but micro-scale art has always been a real pain in PR2. The size 1 tool isn't very well-behaved (it's predictable at least, just a bit hard to use for pixel art). It's because it's still treated like a circle that the game is trying to squish into a pixel, which causes unwanted transparency and thickness. Size 2 onwards doesn't have this problem.
What I would love is a separate tool that is a square pen of size 1, which strictly checks which pixel of art your cursor is over and only fills in that pixel. In the larger picture, a general square tool could be put under the circle tool. (as long as size 1 acts like suggested I'm happy!) Since this is a sort of niche request, having a button dedicated to a square tool instead of just adding a pixel-by-pixel tool seems like a more reasonable addition.
I know that PR2 art and blocks are a little wacky with transparency (hence the eye dropper suggestion someone else talked about recently) but I don't have a problem with that at all. That shouldn't be messed with anyway, imo
Thanks for reading,
