How the two detailed modifiers play
Tiny Brush strips away the usual three brush sizes (medium, big, and too big) that the base game gives you. With only one tiny brush, covering large areas takes far longer, so planning which regions to fill first matters more than usual.
Drawn and Quartered rotates your view of the reference through the four quadrants of the painting, each shown for a quarter of the match time, beginning in the top left. The countdown in the upcoming quadrant lets you anticipate the switch. The developer points out it can actually help, since it focuses your attention on one region at a time if you time things right.
Where modifiers appear
The official Steam page lists Random Variants under Party Modes, alongside Online Multiplayer (up to 7 friends via a join code) and two-mouse local multiplayer. Modifiers are described as optional ways to mix up multiplayer matches, and the new trailer shown at the Six One Indie Showcase also highlights them. The developer has invited players to share modifier ideas in the game's Discord, suggesting the list may keep growing.
