About This Game Cloud Atlas is a multiplayer collaborative pixel art canvas where thousands of players paint side by side on a single massive grid. Every pixel is a statement. Every color is a choice. Together, you and players around the world build a living, breathing mosaic — one cell at a time. At its heart, Cloud Atlas is simple: choose a color, pick a cell, and leave your mark. But beneath that simplicity lies a strategic bidding system where every cell has an owner, a price, and a story. Outbid your rivals to claim prime real estate. Defend your territory. Watch as your creation becomes part of something much larger than yourself. Paint alone or rally with friends. Express your creativity on the Grand Map, customize your pixel avatar, and climb the global leaderboard. Cloud Atlas is a canvas without limits — and every pixel belongs to someone. Will it be you? Key Features A Shared World Canvas — All players paint on the same Grand Map in real time. See the world evolve pixel by pixel, shaped by thousands of hands across the globe. Strategic Bidding System — Every cell has a price. Place higher bids to claim cells from other players. Higher bids mean longer cooldowns — choose your moves wisely. Pixel Avatar Editor — Design your own 15×15 pixel avatar with a full HSL color palette. Show off your style on the leaderboard and in your profile. Global Leaderboard — Compete for the top spot based on your total contributions. Track your ranking and see who dominates the Grand Map. Overwrite Refunds — When another player outbids your cell, your spent Paint Value is fully refunded. Every loss is a chance to strike back. Custom Display Names — Personalize your identity. Your name appears on the map, the leaderboard, and wherever your mark is made. Seamless Steam Integration — One-click login with your Steam account. No extra registration. Steam overlay and microtransaction support built in. How It Works Paint Value is the in-game resource you use to color cells. You can obtain it by purchasing paint packs through the Steam Store. The more Paint Value you spend on a bid, the longer the cell stays locked before anyone can repaint it — and the more it contributes to your leaderboard ranking. Cool-downs add a layer of strategy. After painting a cell, it enters a locked state proportional to your bid amount. Planning when and where to paint is just as important as having the resources to do it. Community Moderation — We actively monitor the Grand Map to ensure a positive and creative environment for all players. Inappropriate content is removed, and repeat offenders may face account restrictions. Join the Canvas Cloud Atlas is more than a game — it's a shared artistic experiment. Every session brings new patterns, new rivalries, and new collaborations. The map is always changing. The question is: what will you add to it?
