I am making a dungeon game, and I came up with this red color pallete. Can you guys give me comments on how to make it better? > **[red color pallete](https://arcade.makecode.com/S34035-23118-85727-79654)** > > Made with ❤️ in Microsoft MakeCode Arcade. yellow and white are there for color coverage, and purple is there for that purpose too. ---

If I were to make a pallete focusing on a single color, I would make a single color —in this case red— then make the rest grayscale. However, it does work best in my opinion if less colors are used, say 8 instead of 15. I also half the time don’t know what I am doing so you can ignore me ---

I am not an artist but I think I can help you improve it a little. First reduce 1-3 reds from the pallete… They are very similar and you probably don’t need to have them all. Second you aren’t going to have many colours for anything else you want because your colours are all pretty much the same scheme. Other than that great pallet and hope this helps. ---

use hue shifting and maybe desaturate the colors a bit ---

This idea is exactly what I’ve done before! You definitely know what ur talkin about > [@Remastering your games! artist\_palette](https://forum.makecode.com/t/remastering-your-games/29218/30): > > [Eyeless] I’ve added an adaptive camera as well which tracks the closest enemy so there can be multiple enemies in each level ---

Thank you @luke, @AnOminousWolf , @jedi, and @Fixitude for your help, you’re right! I will use this to make my color pallete better! (I still don’t know how too spell pallete) ---

Thanks for your guys’s feedback, because without it I would not be able to actually make a color pallete. But for the color pallete, this is what I made! ![Screenshot 2025-05-01 08.12.45](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex020/uploads/makecode/original/3X/e/3/e3ef9794bdaba497d85cf8beeb8f0ef991caf23b.png) (ps the bottom 4 colors are just black because I didn’t need that many colors) And the background for the game I am making! ![Screenshot 2025-05-01 08.14.11](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex020/uploads/makecode/original/3X/0/3/0328547d9b4e8f108484756dc6bed8ba5fa03365.png) I’m really proud of the background even though it is not very complicated. It just looks cool.
