BETTER color palette for makecode

here’s a better color palette:

(use the pxt.json trick to get 16 colors)

I did a lot of palette optimizations to try to get the style of the NES palette and the SNES palette. I’ll try to make a Mega Drive (Genesis) one next.

What do y’all think?

What do you mean, the pxt.json trick?

I did the Mega Drive palette which is a combination of the Sega Master System and the Mega Drive (Genesis) palette.

Oh yeah. I forgot to make a tutorial on this.

Here’s how you can do it:

  1. make a new project, go to assets and change a color

  1. go to javascript and go to pxt.json

  1. after that, click edit settings as text and change the first color (once you scroll down)

  1. finally go to assets, wait for it to reload and there you go. 16 colors!
