Hi everyone! I'm a visual artist & sometimes game designer & music maker too. I just released a browser-based project called MeltyHeart, an experimental chill art-making app inspired by fusion/'Perler Bead' art! Try it out here: https://peteellison.itch.io/meltyheart

To start, drag some colored beads onto the peg board and make something cool! When you're happy with your design, click the iron button and iron your design until the beads get all melty. Then, save your design to a .png file on your computer (be patient, it can sometimes take a second... then check your browser's download location). Can't decide what to make? Well, making a bear is always a safe bet. You can make a creature, a new friend, an avatar for yourself, a cool abstract pattern, your favorite game character, or just start placing colors and see what happens!
