Palette based on various screenshots I took during my playthrough of Pokemon Crystal Legacy, both from overworld and battles. The coloration comes from the default filter the emulator had, leading to smooth not so bright colors.

Inspired by the playful colors and designs of the late 90s and vaporwave asthetics, this hyper saturated palette is perfect for abstract pieces, fonts, and UI designs thanks to the high contrast and attention grabbing harmonies. Don't be fooled by the unconventional shifts though - it can yield surprisingly pleasing space scenes, skies, and even full landscapes! Deep indigo shifts through playful purples before skyrocketing to warmer magenta and orange, then veers crazily into green before finally landing on a crisp off white highlight.

Autumn Fire 12 is a small 12 color palette with warm tones and a comforting, nostalgic vibe. It has enough color to create a lot of visual variety, but it's also good for challenging yourself to work with simpler palettes.

"A Gameboy palette?" *Puts on fedora* "Perry the GB Palette!?" A palette based on the iconic platypus seen in P&F, except slightly retouched to be more functional.
Made to match the joke made in the palette description. Check out an alt here. - by JamesTDG
