Animations Save as you Draw

11 April 2018

Something I have wanted to have for a long time is a Brush Ninja file format, and this is the first step towards that.

Animations are now saved in your web browser so that you can come back to them later and continue where you left off. Even if your browser crashes. Note that there is a delay so your most recent changes may not be instantly saved. But I hope that this will save a lot of effort and disappointment.

Currently there is no way to start again from scratch - that will be coming in a future update. So if you want to start again the easiest way is to delete all the frames and then erase the remaining one.

As with everything on Brush Ninja I will continue iterating and improving in my quest to make the best (only 😃) browser based animation app.
