What this room does not do
No selection, copy and paste, layers or resizing of an existing sprite.
Undo keeps the last 100 steps for each sprite while this page is open. The undo history is not saved.
Each sprite has one palette of up to 7 family colours, transparent and 16 custom colours. Exports use those colours exactly, with no blending.
GIF has transparency on or off, with no partial transparency. Export sizes are limited to keep your device responsive.
