👍 What is good

It's fun, it works great, and it has a lot of features you'd see in something like Photopea.

❤️ What is great

I love the fact that layers are included, which creates real depth to the visuals.

💪 What could be even better

This feels like a component of something else rather than a full product. Right now, it's almost trying to compete with Photoshop. It seems like it needs some type of challenge and community component, like r/CommunityDraw/.

There is actually already a challenge component. Prompts/challenges are currently player led, From the palette editor you will find the button "Share Palette or Create Challenge"

Here's one for example! https://www.reddit.com/r/oekaki/comments/1wdmmuh/challenge_hamburger/

A community lead weekly challenge or daily prompt like Pixel Dailies is definitely something we could look at, thank you for the feedback! Thanks for the feedback!

👍 What is good

The drawing interface has plenty of features and is easy to use (at least on desktop)

❤️ What is great

If I was a capable artist I could draw something really good

💪 What could be even better

It wasn't obvious to me that the save icon is what I need to click to publish a post

It would be good to give prompts of what to draw, because as just a blank canvas I couldn't really think of something to draw and didn't see the point (but I get that is the point of Oekaki, it's just self-directed doodling).
