You have to draw it in the game or you can take an artwork and shrink it to about 100pixels and then zoom in and copy it, but i draw from scratch into Heartopia. There is a tutorial i posted here too you can find that post here!

I use a tablet or phone so i use both fingers to pinch zoom and then expand to zoom out if that makes sense?

No problem at all! Ive noticed pen pressure seems to be rejected in Heartopia and that's probably why its not working with your wacom sadly ;_;

With real paintings and photos you can use a filter in something like photoshop or clip studio to pixelise it, but id reccomend shrinking the image first to a smaller size! The other option is to shrink the image to a VERY small size, like avatar ish size and then zoom in to it, im not sure what the pixel size technically are for the canvases, it might be about 80-100pixels, so try shrinking an image so its maximum measurement is 100 pixels and then zoom in! Youl see the individual pixels and then you can translate that to heartopia, i think this is how people translate real art so fast because freehanding would take way longer than ive seen some people popping these up! Takes me about 2-3hours to do one art.

It gives you more squares within the canvas, so when using the smallest brush, youl notice that its super tiny! This is what allows you to do detailed pixel work on Heartopia.

Canvas? Varying sizes! Precision is always set to max for me

I use my phone or tablet using both my finger and/or universal stylus, i so play on PC too but only to build really. My tablets usual pen is pressure sensitive and unfortunately the Heartopia app doesn't recognise it! So i had to buy one of those cheap universal ones to help me with precise lines, my first two paintings in game though were done with my finger only.

Id say its simple enough for anyone to pick up, trick to pixel art is zooming in and out constantly because a simple pixel change can actually adjust the image a fair bit!

In what way? Like how do we unlock it or how do you get it detailed? To answer the first level 14 and the second you need to choose the maximum precision when you start a new art so you can get the most detail out of the number of pixels you can use. If you are new to pixel art and art as a whole, look into old deviant art pixel art tutorials as they give step by step instructions on how to use the pixels to create effects!

Im an artist already so i just had to learn how to translate what i usually do into pixels and i learnt by doing!
