Turn pictures into pixel art (8-bit game style)

Make an image look like a retro game: pixel size, fewer colours and an optional grid.

About Pixel art converter

Pick an image and set the pixel size — bigger means blockier. Reduce the colours for a retro look or choose a preset palette such as the 4-colour Game Boy. Turn on the grid to use it as a cross-stitch, LEGO or fuse-bead pattern.

Download a PNG at the original size, or at 1 pixel per cell to keep editing in a pixel-art app.

FAQ

Can I use it for cross-stitch?

Yes — turn on the grid and set the colour count to the threads you have.
