There’s tooltip/hint when you’re using tools on the bottom-left, but the buttons could also be styled to indicate if its toggled/active or not.
works with pen tab, but i find it easier if i used mouse instead
but still, nice tool!

I tried using it to draw and it was difficult. And that’s a good thing. I think the more difficult drawing tools are to use, the more they boost creativity. I think that’s why a toy like etch-a-sketch has been so successful!
However, I have a suggestion to make : a selected tool should remain selected after use. This would make it possible, for example, to draw lots of circles in a row without having to click the button again!
♥ Thanks for taking part in the tool jam. Don’t forget to try, comment on and rate the other tools! tools are made to be used! ♥
I have taken the liberty of putting your landscape drawing as a screenshot on my page, with a credit and link back to you. I hope that's OK.
I have also added the facility commented on by others that drawing several of one kind of object should be possible without reclicking a button. There is also now an Undo button.
