Scenes, not just sprites

Backgrounds draws even, full-frame scene art: environments, parallax layers and title screens, on a clean pixel grid that stays crisp when you scale it up.

Two ways in

FROM A PROMPT

Describe a place and get even, full-frame scene art in one generation.

FROM A SKETCH

Block out a rough layout and have it redrawn as a finished pixel scene, so composition stays in your hands.

BIG AND CRISP

Scenes render on a true pixel grid and export up to 8K with an integer upscale, so lines stay sharp at any size.

How it works

Describe or sketch

Type the scene, or attach a rough sketch to guide the layout. Pick a resolution and detail level.

Generate

A full scene comes back on a clean native grid, ready to reframe or retune.

Reframe and export

Adjust the crop, colours and detail, then export at native size or upscaled up to 8K.

Backgrounds is a paid feature. You can start on the free tier with sprites, conversion, animation and packs, and upgrade when you need scene art.

FAQ

What kind of backgrounds can it make?

Full-scene pixel art: forests, caverns, coasts, towns, mountains, neon cities and more, from a prompt. It draws even, focal scene art rather than a single centred sprite.

How large can the backgrounds be?

Large. Scenes generate on a clean native pixel grid and can be exported at high resolution, up to 8K, with an integer upscale that keeps the pixels crisp.

Can I turn a rough sketch into a background?

Yes. Attach a rough sketch and the scene is redrawn from your layout, so you can block out where things go and let the detail get filled in.

Can I control the detail level?

Yes. A detail slider plus colour and contrast controls let you go from clean and simple to richer, busier scenes.

Is Backgrounds a paid feature?

Backgrounds is available on paid plans. The free tier covers sprite generation, conversion, animation and packs. You can start free and upgrade when you need scene art.
