Thank you for being here and supporting Swanky Paint all these years!
When we first started developing, we didn't know it was going to grow to become the software that it is now. This was more a tiny experiment and tribute to the fantastic Deluxe Paint.
Swanky Paint will remain to be a niche application for those who love creating within the retro limitations of old hardware in years to come.
We've got so many things we want to show and implement - but there are only the two of us developing this in our spare time so development is slow but surely. Thank you for your patience!
We hope you enjoy the new features and additions. It has been an intense few months leading up to this release. And we hope you stick around for the new things coming to our beloved pixel pushing application!
xoxo
