1.8 Steady Magnitude out of 10. Star growth looks organic. Data as of September 18, 2026.

About the project

Picxel turns reference images into pixel-art game assets: GPT redraws the subject while local algorithms snap the result to a precise pixel grid. It exports transparent 32×32, 64×64 or 128×128 PNGs with up to 16 colors, running as a Codex skill.

Useful for

Build character sprites for an indie game from hand-drawn references
Batch-process up to 20 images into transparent PNGs at chosen sizes
Compare a concept against 128, 64 and 32 px outputs to pick a size
