How to play Pixel Flow: rules and level walkthroughs
Pixel Flow is a tap-and-order puzzle where each pig can clear cubes of the same color. The key is to match color, remaining hits, conveyor space, and waiting slots before sending a pig. If you are stuck on a numbered board, use PixelFlow Guide to open a matching video walkthrough and verify the board first.
Pixel Flow rules summary
| Game element | What to check | Why it matters |
|---|---|---|
| Pig color | Match it with visible cubes of the same color. | A mismatched pig can block later moves instead of clearing space. |
| Hit number | Read the number above the pig before sending it. | The number controls how many matching cubes that pig can remove. |
| Conveyor | Keep room for incoming pigs and returning pigs. | A crowded conveyor makes the next useful color harder to play. |
| Waiting slots | Watch the five holding spaces for pigs with remaining hits. | Full waiting slots can force a bad order even when the next color is correct. |
| Board match | Compare the video board with your visible board. | Level numbers may differ, so the board is the final check before using a guide. |
Read color and ammo together
A pig attacks cubes of its own color. The number above it represents the hits available for that run, so both color and remaining hits matter when you decide what to send next.
Protect the conveyor and waiting slots
The conveyor has limited capacity, and pigs with remaining hits can return to one of five waiting slots. Ordering choices therefore affect how much space remains for later colors.
Find the numbered level first
The current target range is Levels 1–3010. PixelFlow Guide currently has 2,838 video guides.
Start in the numbered level directory and open any gold number with an available video. Gray numbers do not have a usable source yet. Compare the board in the video with your game because numbering can differ between versions.

What is the basic goal in Pixel Flow?
Clear the visible pixel cubes by sending pigs in an order that matches color, remaining hits, conveyor space, and waiting slots.
What does the number above a pig mean?
The number is the pig's available hits for that run. A pig can remove cubes of its own color until those hits are used.
Why should I compare the board before following a walkthrough?
Pixel Flow level numbers can show different boards across versions or player states, so a matching number is only useful after the visible board also matches.
Where should I start when I am stuck on a numbered level?
Start in the numbered level directory. PixelFlow Guide tracks Levels 1-3010 and currently has 2,838 video guides.
Is PixelFlow Guide an official Loom Games guide?
No. PixelFlow Guide is an independent walkthrough resource that links to original sources and official game listings where relevant.
