The graphics are praised for their generative art capabilities, offering a fast and efficient way to create visuals. However, users note limitations such as a maximum grid size of 64 by 64 and an 8-color palette, which may restrict creativity. Overall, it is considered a strong tool for graphic generation despite these shortcomings.
“This thing is a powerhouse of generative art. It has a few shortcomings, such as the maximum limit of 64 by 64 sized grids and 8 color palette limits, but overall it's a great piece of software for churning out graphics fast.”
