Tumira
Tumira is a tile system art program designed for you to create within limits. Use predefined shapes and colors so you can make something cool. Think of it like playing with toy wooden blocks or any brick building system, but digitally and with more available shapes and colors.
The idea for Tumira started in 2020 as I was learning to program applications for fun outside of my day job as a graphic designer. I developed a ton of prototypes that produced different outcomes and had different working names. I started from zero with this version and I'm adding features back in as I continue to use it.
