Sloppy Forgeries accuracy is scored pixel by pixel

The store’s claim for Sloppy Forgeries is narrow and specific: accuracy is measured pixel by pixel, in real time, from the pixels you paint. That is the whole published rule. The painting page covers the tools that feed those pixels. The guide covers the release. Party standings are on multiplayer.

The sentences that count

From the short description: one of the few drawing games that measures accuracy pixel-by-pixel in real time.

From the feature list: a score based on every pixel you paint.

From the painting-features list: real-time feedback, a bar that goes up and down as you paint.

From the single-player list: the masterpiece catalog tracks forgery scores and stats across 50 masterpieces. Steam Leaderboards are for the best accuracy score per painting, and for a gallery of the best forgeries in-game.

The official site repeats the pixel-by-pixel sentence and the count of 50. It does not add a formula.

What the store images show

The screenshots are promotional frames, checked 12 Nov 2026. They show the shape of the UI. They are not a scrape of a live board.

• During a round, a label reads “% ACCURACY” beside the copy, with a horizontal bar.
• When time expires, a large percent sits between the reference painting and the copy. One Mona Lisa frame also shows a letter grade and the label “PREV. HI.”
• A two-player results frame shows a percent on each side and a WINNER banner over the higher one. The plaque in that frame is Starry Night.
• An eight-row results frame ranks players with a percent each, under “ROUND 1 OF 1.”
• A leaderboard frame shows tabs LEADERBOARD, FRIENDS, GLOBAL, and AROUND USER, a grid of ranked forgeries, and a percent on each card. The painting title in that frame is Suprematist Composition: Airplane Flying.

What is not in the source

No page checked on 12 Nov 2026 prints:

• a weight per color, per region, or per brush size
• whether untouched canvas counts the same as a wrong color
• the percent that earns a given letter
• how “previous high” is stored, or whether it is local, friends-only, or global
• a season, a reset, or a numerical top score

The bar “goes up and down,” which means the store allows the feedback to fall while you are still painting. It does not say which kind of stroke makes it fall. Guessing that a stroke outside the subject lowers the score is a reading of “every pixel,” not a rule the page wrote down. The safe statement is the one Steam printed: every painted pixel is in the score, and the bar can move either way while you work.

No undo and no fill sit next to that rule. You cannot take a pixel back with an undo button the store says you do not have, and you cannot flood a region with a fill the store says you do not have. Brush size still matters because the three sizes are the tool list, not because a hidden multiplier was published.

Leaderboards, catalog, archive

Three different store lines are easy to mash together. They stay separate here.

Feature	What the store says it holds
Masterpiece catalog	Forgery scores and stats across 50 masterpieces.
Steam Leaderboards	Best accuracy per painting, and a gallery of the best forgeries, in the game.
Painting archive	Every forgery you make, stored locally.
Replays	Time-lapse of each stroke, and a GIF download to share.

“Best accuracy score per-painting” is the leaderboard unit the store names. It does not say the board is a single number for your whole account. The leaderboard screenshot’s GLOBAL and FRIENDS tabs are UI labels in that image. This page does not describe filter rules beyond those words.

The catalog count of 50 matches the painting-select copy. It is not a promise that every painting is on a public board on day one. The full game was still marked coming soon on the day of this check.
