In fact, this masking applies to all indices, including negative indices, since all other bits are masked off, resulting in 8 identical sets of the base colors alternating with 8 identical sets of the extra colors throughout the valid PICO-8 number range. Similarly, every set of 16 system colors between 128 and 255 is the same as 128.143. This means that every set of 16 system colors between 0 and 127 (e.g. System color indices are automatically masked with 0x8f, e.g. Knowing the exact name for a hue may not be as helpful to a reader as knowing where it can fit into a useful gradient.Īll other unlisted system colors are currently black and should probably be treated as "reserved for future expansion", which is to say: do not use them. Those with a more artistic eye are invited to fine-tune them if they are off-base, but please try to keep in mind their connections to other parts of the palette, as has been done with the various grays, reds, greens, and blues. Note that these colors were named arbitrarily at the time this section was created and are not official in any way. Still, they remain undocumented, so it can't be assumed they will never change. These colors are not documented, but zep has indicated that he is aware of their discovery and that he is allowing their use. "light-peach" at index 15, as "peach" seemed more appropriate in the additional color range below, which contains a dark peach color as well."lavender" at index 13, as "indigo" is a darker, more saturated color, and also a somewhat different hue.Names from Roman Zolotarev's PICO-8 palette reference, except:
These are the 16 system colors the screen palette is mapped to when PICO-8 starts up: The system palette 0.15: Official base colors No single frame may contain more than 16 colors. It is not possible to split the screen into sections which configure the screen palette differently. The screen palette may be changed any time during or between frames, but only the screen palette which is set at the time the frame is presented to the user will actually be used. This mapping can be changed by adjusting palette #1 with a call to pal(screen_palette_index, system_palette_index, 1). See System palette below for details.īy default, screen palette indices 0-15 are mapped 1:1 to system palette indices 0-15. The screen palette maps pixel indices found in screen data memory to indices in the larger system palette, which currently contains 32 pre-defined colors. It cannot choose directly from the larger system palette. However, it can only choose from the 16 colors that are in the screen palette. Unlike the screen palette, it does not need to be the same for the entire frame. The draw palette can be changed at will, affecting subsequent draw calls. By default, index 0 is flagged as transparent, but it's possible to flag any index, or multiple indices, or none. It can be changed with a call to palt(draw_palette_index, true/false). If set, sprite pixels with that index will not be written. The draw palette also has a transparency flag per entry. The draw palette is useful for things like palette-swapped sprites, where you have one sprite image that can be drawn for, say, different teams or ranks with different uniform colors. This mapping can be changed by adjusting palette #0 with a call to pal(draw_palette_index, screen_palette_index).
The written values will, in turn, be used by PICO-8 to index into the screen palette (see below) when the frame is ready to be presented to the viewer.īy default, draw palette indices 0-15 are mapped 1:1 to screen palette indices 0-15.
Time palette update#
We maintain, review palettes, and update on a daily basis to showcase the very best of the color palettes the users create.😊 We are Franco & Lucas Maldonado, brothers, designers and web developers with a big passion for colors. I wanted to make a website that was so intuitive and easy to use that you can understand it in less than 30 seconds. Solid colors are useful, but what was missing was a tool that enables non-technical folks to combine and use all the amazing color palettes. I started this project because I wanted to create a webapp and gain some designer audience. While finishing up another side project ( Gradient Hunt), I unexpectedly noticed the popularity of colors and palette websites.
