Pixel Grid Transform

Flip, rotate or shift an indexed pixel sprite without blur.

Try an example: Rotate a tiny sprite

How it works

Enter a compact pixel grid and HEX palette. Transform it with exact integer coordinates, optional wrapping and transparent pixels, then download an editable Flipline Pixel Studio project.

  • Grid index 0 is transparent; 1–9 and A–W refer to palette entries 1–32. Rows must have equal width, at most 128 pixels per side.
  • Rotation is clockwise and swaps width and height. Shift clips outside pixels or wraps them to the opposite edge. No interpolation or color changes.
  • The same transform powers Pixel Studio. Open the downloaded .flipline-pixels.json file with the main Open button or Open sprite.
