How to use this prompt

"Gradient sky banding" pulls the most weight — it makes Midjourney stagger the dusk colors in flat stepped bands the way old console hardware did, instead of a smooth photographic fade. "Title-screen mood" quietly handles composition, centering the skyline and keeping the upper sky clear for logo space. Midjourney's pixels never sit on a real grid at native resolution, so export the upscale and downsize with nearest-neighbor if you need it crisp at small sizes. If windows smear into vertical streaks, drop stylize to 100 — that failure shows up above 250.

Variations to try

  • Sunrise flip — "gradient sky banding from peach to pale gold, city still in silhouette, one tower catching first light"
  • Rain it out — add "diagonal pixel rain streaks, wet foreground street reflecting the skyline" and switch to --ar 9:16 for a phone wallpaper
