It emulated the same process used on paper and pen, and was also able to zoom in and out of the file. As technology progressed, a lot more features unique to the digital side of art evolved.\u00a0<strong>Super-Paint,\u00a0<\/strong>released in 1974 by Richard Shoup, featured the usage of color pixels. For the time, these projects were incredibly ambitious, and the art industry heavily benefited from these, especially after characters were mostly pixelated. Surprisingly enough, the software that a lot of companies, such as Riot Games, Epic Games, use is\u00a0<strong>Photoshop\u00a0<\/strong>for 2D art, which was originally released in 1990 by John Kroll.
