Drawing experience



The pinned post provides a permanent spot for secondary game information






In November 2023, I launched Pixelary, a drawing and guessing game built using Reddit's developer platform, Devvit. What started as a hackathon project quickly grew into a popular game, attracting over 60,000 daily active users and 50,000 subscribers. As both the designer and developer, I was excited to explore how the Devvit platform could foster new, interactive experiences for its users.
The game was built with Blocks, a UI framework I designed to enable interactive posts on Reddit. Pixelary's simple gameplay—where users draw based on prompts and others guess the drawings—relies on this framework to create seamless, engaging experiences. Blocks was key in ensuring Pixelary could scale and remain fresh as it continues to grow.
You can explore the open-source code for Pixelary here. Additionally, some of my learnings from the project are shared on the Reddit engineering blog.
