I wouldn't imagine it would have to be anything fancy.
Just a simple colour selection pallet.
A fill tool maby ?
Paint with the left mouse button and delete with the right ?
For the big things like the title screen, maby simple geometric
shapes ?

Just a thought. :)

Keep at it dan !

I thought your editor was great, is the colab still alive ?
