WHAT IS
PIXELFORGE?
A free AI-powered color palette generator built for pixel artists, game developers and photographers.
OUR MISSION
PixelForge was created with a simple goal: make color theory accessible to everyone, regardless of their design background.
Whether you're a game developer trying to find the perfect retro palette for your indie game, a pixel artist looking for harmonious color combinations, or a photographer exploring color grades — PixelForge gives you professional-grade tools for free, instantly, in your browser.
No account. No installation. No cost. Just great color palettes.
WHO IS IT FOR?
Generate cohesive color palettes for your game worlds. Preview colors on real 3D game environments and export directly to CSS or JSON for your engine.
Create limited palettes with 4 to 8 colors, test them on our mini pixel canvas, and master color theory with our built-in guide. From retro 8-bit to modern pastel aesthetics.
Import your own photos and see how any color palette looks as a color grade. Simulate Lightroom-style filters using real color harmony theory before spending hours in post-production.

TECHNOLOGY
PixelForge runs entirely in your browser. There is no server, no database, and no account system. Everything — palette generation, canvas drawing, color grading — happens locally on your device.
The color harmony algorithms are based on classical color theory (HSL color model) combined with carefully tuned generation rules to produce palettes that are both mathematically correct and visually pleasing.
