ssh.place Launches Collaborative Pixel Art Canvas Accessible via SSH
Key points
- Collaborative pixel art canvas accessible via SSH.
- No account or installation required; uses any SSH key.
- 200x60 cell canvas, color-only placements.
- 15-second cooldown per placement, tied to SSH key.
Collaborative Drawing via SSH
ssh.place has introduced a new platform enabling collaborative pixel art creation directly through an SSH connection. Users can connect to "ssh ssh.place" to access a shared canvas, where they can place colored blocks.
Access and Interaction
The service requires no account creation or software installation; any valid SSH key can be used for access. Users navigate the canvas using arrow keys, 'wasd', or 'hjkl', and select colors with number keys '0' to '9' or the 'tab' key. Placing a block is done with the 'space' key.
Canvas Specifications and Limitations
The canvas measures 200x60 cells and supports color-only placements, disallowing text characters. A 15-second cooldown is enforced between each block placement, and this cooldown is tied to the user's SSH key, persisting across reconnections. The canvas updates exclusively through SSH interactions.
