In paint be sure to make a bunch of random lines and then use the fill bucket to fill in random colors in the spaces.
How do you know?!?! This is one of the most laser precise call out to my childhood ive ever seen in an internet comment.
Oooh I totally forgot that I did play with MS Paint! I invented cities, countries, or I just did what you described. Fun times!
I used pixel-level zoom and drew top-down Star Wars starfighters and then copied and pasted them to have battles.
I would do that with the spray paint, then select two colors on the bucket and fill them in alternating back and forth, slowly progressing outward, until the entire picture was one color. Good times.
I'd fill the whole screen, then use the freestyle cutting and go wild with the mouse, then delete the selection, leaving a weirdly neat 2-color mosaic
Em spaint was always fun.
