Tweaks, docs & website remain before the launch of Dottie, my pixel art editor for macOS 12 and up. I took a little bit of time to work some of my notes into a "premortem" of sorts.

@gingerbeardman That dither smear is super cool. I've never seen anything like that. I don't have a Mac, but rad looking app!

@KMaki thanks! i first (only time?) saw it in Multi Paint System for PC-98 https://mastodon.gamedev.place/@gingerbeardman/114817678169206686 I had to think hard about how they might have done it and build it from scratch myself

Attached: 1 image multi-colour demo of the smudge tool in Multi Paint System (PC-98) which is dithered by necessity due to the limited number of colours. #swoon #dithering #pixelart
