Commodore64 was an 8-bit home computer released in 1982.
Since Commodore is making new Commodore 64 consoles expected Fall 2025 I am exploring if the graphics would be capable of doing the kinds of games I want and testing the vibes to see if making a "new" Commodore 64 game would match my aesthetics. This is pretty cool. With actual experienced artists (not me haha), you could do some amazing and fresh stuff with the palette. - by westingtyler
The limited palette helps me get past my indecisiveness and perfectionism.

Trying to see how well the C64 palette can do an urban cityscape.

A palette I made for a fictional computer of the same name. here's a little lore I made lol, "The AKC12 (AEON Krystal Computer). A revolutionary computer with its patented Optic Computing 'Krystal Processors', it shows us what the future of computers might just be like like"- Technology Magazine, October 1986
Modified to abide by the rules, here's the original version! https://lospec.com/i/ufpf - by drip knuckles

Sampled from a genuine Apple Macintosh CRT in 2021, it uses the light blue and faded black to carry 1bit art in the closest you can get to looking at an Apple Macintosh screen's colours without sitting in front of one. Take note that the colours are sampled from a daylight photograph of actual hardware then manually adjusted to best match the image, and is thus a representation of how the art displays as opposed to how it's recorded in software (which definitely would've been true black or white). Anyone has permission to use this palette for any purpose.
CGA was a graphics card released in 1981 for the IBM PC. The standard mode uses one of two 4-color palettes (each with a low-intensity and high-intensity mode), but a hack allows use of all 16. #cga
