This piece of pixel art is a view of a city at night, it's streets are covered in fog.

This piece uses 6 colors and uses an extensive array of dithering. The picture itself is an array of 10 x 10 pixel tiles, 25 unique tiles in total.

Thank you! I was quite intrigued on how much variance I could acheive with just 6 colors.

I thought about the challeneg and realized in fog, you don't get all the colors and you don't get the details. It reminded me of Apple IIc/e bitmapping or even C64 PETSCII. I tried to honor the 'fog' of the computers of the 80s, contrasting it with the clarity you see with the current systems.

Fair enough. I was actually going for a blocky Atari style. I used 6 colors and only 25 uniques 10 x10 tiles. Perhaps my concept was not in line with yours.

I personally enjoy the intentional blocking of the dithering, it gives it a very interesting look. I also like how the preview kinda gives it a "before and after" feel.

Seriously loving this: great aesthetics, very clean. I like that there is height fog and distance fog effects. Great colors.

Looking at this piece i can say that you need to focus on improving a couple things;

  1. First is adding more detail, this looks very bland at the moment. If you focused on adding more unique bits and pieces to this you would earn a rating of Three from me
  2. Next is eliminating the grid. This looks like something from an NES game, everything looks too square, if you changed it up a bit you would have a rating of Four
  3. Lastly you need to improve your dithering, try to get more patterns going before you reach the other color. This would give it a complete rating of Five

At this point i can only give you a measly rating of Two
