    Great implementation! I played it on mobile and I scrolled so far and deep that (hopefully) no one will ever overwrite my pixels! Muhahaaaa

      Thanks! There's definitely a discoverability problem. Most people just work along the edges. A billion is a long way to scroll! Honestly, I can't even find the stuff I've drawn in the middle.

      At some point I should probably add some sort of minimap or something. Will be interesting to see the secret art people hide.

    Awesome demo! I want a minimap though.

      Noted! It's on my list. But, it's probably more work than the whole project so far.
