https://draw.horse https://draw.horse This is a drawing toy that takes some inspiration from kidpix https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kid_Pix https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kid_Pix). It makes amusing (to me anyhow) noises, has some goofy brushes and stamps. You can't save your pictures or print them out, and I haven't gotten around to figuring out some happy medium of using canvas and doing a flood fill.

I love the sound effects

  Thank you, means a lot that you took a look. These were hand selected with a focus group consisting of a 4 year old and 6 year old, so pretty demanding UAT on that front

Love it. This whole thread is just total and utter madness. Everyone here has the most esoteric projects I would never have imagined. p.s. the regular pen drawing sound on your app has the background noise in it as far as I can tell. Have you tried it with noise removal? It might make it better, it also might make it less charming, I don't know!

  It does, but finding appropriately licensed foley samples that also sound ok in a loop is more challenging than I would have expected. Plus, my sound editing skills are minimal My biggest beef with the sounds, tbh, is that I need to master them all to about the same volume. I think the drawing sound is a bit quiet, or maybe my button clicks and stamp sounds are loud. Or maybe I should break down and get a microphone and find the sound I am thinking of

    You're welcome to send them all to me, I've got an Adobe Audition subscription.. I can do noise removal and renormalize them all to the same volume. Send me an email: hello@qingcharles.com

  I would at least consider changing the sound. Found the current one particularily grating.
