After much deliberation, the judges have finally come to a shocking conclusion... there are Pixelween winners this year too! And what perilously paranormal panoramas they have presented us.

This year the entries were judges by a team of  a team of moderators, amazing pixel artists, and veteran community members: Cyangmou, Fool, Irenaart, jok, Luca, Mirre, Reo, QueenKami, Theoden, Trigonomicon, vrine and Weerdmeester.

Without much further ado. Here are the winners of Pixelween 2025:

6th: Tipleloop

7th: Space-AgeWrangler

  11th: amberMechanic

The prizes this year are:

1st place: a printed Masters of Pixel art book volume of their choice, a €30 Steam gift card, and a software key.
2nd place: a €15 Steam gift card, a Masters of Pixel art e-book, and a software key.
3rd place: a €10 Steam gift card, a Masters of Pixel art e-book, and a software key.
4th and 5th place: a Masters of Pixel art e-book, and a software key.
6th - 9th (and possibly more): a software key, see info below.

From these, the highest placing winners get to choose first, and if a winner does not need a prize it will be moved on to the 10th place, and so on.

This year RankOne Global is sponsoring PixelJoint with Steam gift cards for the winners. RankOne is a community platform for gamers, streamers and enthusiasts. It lets you build a personal gaming profile where you track, rate and review all games you've played, discover new favorites and connect with other gamers. Here is Mirre's profile for example.
 

Please give a round of applause to everyone involved this year. We wouldn't have had these wonderful pieces of art without the creative participants, the moderators organising it all, the judges looking it all over, and everyone else cheering us on, leaving comments, and just admiring the art! Thank you all for making this event wonderful, this year as well. We're already looking forward to Pixelween 2026!
