Wplace

Wplace is a collaborative pixel art website developed by Brazilian developer Murilo Matsubara and launched on 21 July 2025, in which users can edit the canvas by changing the color of pixels on the world map. The website is based on r/place, a collaborative project that was hosted on Reddit.

== Overview == Inspired by r/place, a recurring collaborative project hosted on Reddit, Wplace enables individual users to edit an online canvas of a world map by changing any of the four trillion square pixels available. Users begin with a limited pool of 30 pixels they can place and regain one spent pixel every 30 seconds as the maximum pool expands by 2 every time the user levels up by drawing a certain amount of pixels. Those limitations encourage users to either work slowly, hoping their progress is not ruined, or collaborate with other users, especially on large-scale projects. The site also features a leaderboard that shows which country and region host the most pixels. Such rules result in frequent wars between users, where every author tries to finish their own picture, sometimes destroying previous or neighboring images.
