The Lospec Palette List is a database of palettes for pixel art.
We include both palettes that originate from old hardware that could only display a few colors, as well as palettes created by pixel artists specifically for making art.
This is computer chip y, a palette inspired by shirt colors somehow, but when I looked at the colors, I realized it looked technical, edited them and made this palette.

The obviously-CGA-inspired palette used by Horsey Game's sprites and horses. The game does use a few extra colors in various places, but those are one-off exceptions - these colors are the ones shared between sprites.

A set of colors inspired by Kirby games. I usually design enemies inspired by kirby characters, normally creating small rounded creatures. I set up this palette with the most common colors I use when creating my arts. It may resemble the colors of a snes. Hope you like 👍

A highly contrasted 8-color palette crafted specifically for synthwave, cyberpunk, and vaporwave aesthetics. It features a deep, cool-toned monochromatic ramp (from near-black purple to muted lilac) perfect for building dark sci-fi environments, cityscapes, and UI backgrounds. This dark base is sharply contrasted by piercing neon magenta, vibrant cyan, and a toxic yellow-green to make action elements, glowing screens, and magic effects pop instantly. Capped off with a soft pastel pink for retro-dreamy transitions. Ideal for top-down arcades, fast-paced action games, and moody tech art.

It’s a beautiful scandal of 14 colors that nobody asked for, but when mixed together, they create the exact rhythm.
Here the yellow screams, the blue overflows, and the red never lowers its intensity. What’s excessive elsewhere is celebrated here.
This palette is called Colombia because it’s just like the country; unpredictable, mestiza, and so intense that you can no longer see the world in neutral tones.
