Show HN: Draw 1-bit pixel art every day

https://1-bit.day

Hello :)

I'm David and for this 2025 I wanted to start an habit to learn pixel art. Particularly 1-bit (my favorite).

I tried to find an app or something to do a kind of challenge to self-motivation, but I didn't find anything... So I created my own website for the challenge.

If you want, you can join the challenge and create a gallery. It started 1st of January and (at the moment) there are prompts until 30th of March... But you can start since the beginning in any moment!

Thank you :)

Cool idea, simple interface.

What are your hopes with this? Is it just for yourself to use, or do you hope to get a large gallery of submissions? I was hoping I could submit to the gallery without logging in, but in retrospect I do see why that probably should not be allowed

Honestly I don't have any hope xd It was something that I created for me and then I thought that maybe some people could be also interested in the challenge.

I tried to put a small friction to avoid people spamming any kind of draw, but I'm not doing a content review or censoring anything xd It doesn't have a huge user base and probably it won't happen.

Thanks for your comment ! :)
