Pixel art circle generator
Drawing a smooth circle on a pixel grid by hand is fiddly, so this tool does the math for you. Set a diameter, choose an outline or a filled circle, pick a color, and download a clean transparent PNG. It's handy for round sprite shapes, UI elements, and planning a circle in a block build like Minecraft. Everything runs in your browser, with no login.
How it works
- Set the diameter in pixels
- Choose an outline or a filled circle
- Pick a color, and for outlines, the ring thickness
- Download the circle as a transparent PNG
What you can use it for
- Round sprite bases, coins, shields, and UI buttons
- A clean circle outline to trace or fill in the pixel editor
- Planning circles for Minecraft or other block builds
- Consistent circle sizes across a tileset or icon set
Tips
- Odd diameters give a circle with a single center pixel; even diameters center on a 2×2 block
- For a thick ring, raise the thickness on an outline instead of stacking two circles
- Download a few sizes so your circles stay consistent across a project
- Drop the PNG into the pixel editor to tweak a pixel or two by hand

FAQ
Enter the diameter you want, choose outline or filled, and download the PNG. The tool plots the roundest pixel circle for that size automatically.
Yes. Switch the style to Filled for a solid disc, or keep it on Outline for just the ring.
Yes. Pick the diameter you need and use the outline as a block-by-block guide for round towers, domes, and other builds.
Yes. Only the circle pixels are colored, so the rest of the image stays transparent and drops cleanly onto any background.
