I built Square Face Generator, a free AI-powered tool that creates cute square face icons.

Features: - Multiple style options (cartoon, pixel art, minimalist, etc.) - Customizable colors and accessories - One-click generation - No registration required - Completely free

Built with modern web technologies, it's perfect for developers, designers, and anyone needing quick avatar icons for projects.

Would love to hear feedback from the HN community!
