Full sentences. Describe the scene, then the medium, then the flaws you want kept in.

The recipe is the style, not the picture. Put your own subject in and the prompt updates.

Prompt

A screenshot from a 1998 PlayStation adventure game. Low polygon characters with roughly two hundred triangles, hands without individual fingers, textures at 64 pixels with affine warping across the floor, vertex jitter, heavy dithering in the sky gradient, thick distance fog hiding the draw distance, 320 by 240 resolution stretched to 4:3. Flat vertex lighting, no shadows, simple health bar overlay in the corner.

Tips

  • 1Give a polygon budget. "Roughly two hundred triangles" reads better than "low poly".
  • 2Distance fog is what makes the frame feel like real hardware rather than a stylised render.
  • 3Render large, then downscale to 320 by 240 and scale back up with nearest neighbour.

Things to try

Survival horror

a fixed camera angle, a pre rendered corridor, a small polygon character

Racing game

a low poly car, sprite trees, a horizon that pops in

RPG town

a pre rendered painted background with a polygon party walking through it

Fighting select screen

character portraits in a grid with dithered gradients
