The Painter's Playground

The Painter's Playground is a digital painting and progression game set in the coastal town of Painter's Port. You create and collect 2D artwork, build a gallery and earn recognition in the online community. There is no fail state; you can aim to sell paintings for high prices or assemble a gallery of coveted works, whether you doodle with a mouse or paint with a drawing tablet.

Create and share art

Use a range of tools, paints and canvases to make digital paintings. The online community can give your work appreciation votes, and you can sell it. You can also buy, sell and vote on community-created works, including paintings in The Community Harbor.

Progress as an artist

Painting earns Renown (XP) through idle clicker-style progress, while gallery sales earn Bits (money). Spend these currencies on permanent upgrades, canvases, painting tools, paint colors, votes for your favorite paintings in The Community Harbor, and other items. You can invest Renown to advance through 50 levels as a career artist, with a slow-burning progression system designed for a lifestyle game that can occupy dozens of hours.

Build your gallery

Manage your gallery and curate a collection of sought-after works. You can compete for top positions across multiple leaderboard categories, or switch to Oyster Mode to paint without limitations.
