Hey everyone!

I’ve been hard at work on a new tool called Pixzels, and I wanted to share a quick look at the progress of the Orthographic Projection System.

As many of you know, creating consistent isometric pixel art can be a challenge. To solve this, I’m developing a system that allows you to upload simple 2D orthographic views (Front, Side, and Top) and have the app interpolate them into a 3D-ready isometric object.

Special thanks to @eddort_dev, @oroshibu.bsky.social, @skurovec and @KenneyNL for the inspiration. 

How it works (as seen in the video):

• Upload Views: You input your flat pixel art frames.
• Interpolation Modes: You can choose between "Front-Side" or "Front-Side-Top" interpolation.
• The Result: The system calculates the depth and volume, giving you a perfect 3D-orthographic representation that maintains that crisp pixel aesthetic.

Try it out! The app is still very much a work in progress, but I’ve made a web-based version available for you to test. I’m really looking for feedback on the workflow—does the projection feel intuitive? What features would make your isometric pipeline faster?
