How it works
Keep the editable master.
Save a .beforepixel project with its palette, layers and timing. Browser recovery helps after an interrupted session; keep your own project copy too.
Draw small, keep control.
Build icons, sprites or repeating artwork with separate layers, a deliberate palette and mirror drawing. Pencil, fill, shapes and selection handle the edits; tile preview helps you check the edges of a repeating asset.
Animate when the job needs it.
Creative adds the frame timeline, onion skin and playback. Review individual frame durations, then deliver a sprite sheet or animated GIF. GIF has palette and transparency limits; retain the project and a PNG when still-image quality matters.
Your canvas stays here.
PNG import, drawing and export run in your browser. This edition does not store your canvas documents in a Galactrex cloud service.
The website edition.
BeforePixel is one app, with a lighter edition on the website. Hosted browser-to-agent pairing is not currently public. For a released local MCP workflow on Windows, see BeforeEdit.
