How to use this prompt

'16-bit' plus 'limited palette' is what forces genuine chunky pixels: say only 'pixel art' and Flux hands you a smooth painting with a faint grid overlaid. Dithering is the era's signature, so ask for 'dithered gradients' in the sky or it blends smoothly like a modern render and breaks the illusion. Keep the ramp tight, sunset orange fading to sea blue, because vintage hardware could not show thousands of colours and a short palette is what reads as authentic. The glowing lamp gives you one clear focal light. When you upscale, use nearest-neighbour, never bilinear, or you will blur the hard pixel edges into paste.

Variations to try

  • Night version — a moonlit blue palette with the lighthouse beam sweeping across dark water and warm lit windows
  • Winter version — an icy pastel palette, drifting pixel snowflakes, a frozen shoreline and glowing windows
