Built a custom style to generate 48x48 achievement/unlock icons for the game I'm working on! I know I keep harping on it but the 'my styles' system really is insanely powerful for game dev. Guide on how I made the style below :)

I've been playing with music models the last couple weeks and so far there's nothing close to Suno custom models. But their copyright detection is soooo anoying

ACE Step 1.5 XL is good, but probably still not as good

WTF is this prompt? "A classical Spanish guitar as if performed by el mariachi band" 🙃

I want to highlight some of the really cool custom styles made with Retro Diffusion. It's still in my opinion the strongest feature on the site. It takes a little to get right, but once you have a style nailed down, you can just go into mass production mode so easily!

Getting in-canvas editing ready to go this weekend :) Now Retro Diffusion will have a quick way to edit, inpaint, and expand images, along with extremely powerful color controls, background removal, and more. This is all part of a new "Tools" category :)

If you're not using Retro Diffusion you're missing out on the highest quality pixel art generation out there. It's the only tool actually made by people who know what they are doing, have professional experience in art, game dev, and AI. It's so powerful.

Investing on a really robust automated testing infra on this AI times is so worth it!

We added some nice QoL to the site, just a simple way to pin previous generations so you don't need to scroll forever in the sidebar to find them. Great for working on projects where you have a lot of reference assets :)

One of the best things about Retro Diffusion these days is the ability to make custom styles. Its overlooked by a lot of users, but once you get a style built its so impactful. I've generated easily over 1000 consistent portraits at this point for different things. ~$0.01 each!

Everyone thinking GPT Image 2.0 can do pixel art, I refer you back to this. Nothing has changed 🤣

So I made a custom style based on some of my old artwork- now you can generate an infinite amount of unique characters with this dark background portrait style. I LOVE how this came out, it's my favorite style yet. All just built with the "my styles" feature, no training!

I was using the 20 USD Codex plan, they nerfed it to oblivion. None of the alt providers are worth IMHO. Ollama Cloud is too unreliable, but the usage is good Z.AI super slow at times, probably on peak hours, but for some reason are always my working hours

OpenCode Go is really good, but I need more than the provided usage and Zen get super expensive really quickly, even with GLM 5.1 I'm back to Codex, but feels wrong to pay 100/200 USD/month for a freaking subscription XD

My main problem with all these providers is reliability. Sometimes are super slow or you hit an extremely quantized endpoint on high traffic hours and the agents doesn't get the right tool calls. So annoying

I was interested in reading this book but then I heard the author used a typewriter, so now I have lost all interest and I'm never going to read it!!

We're working on a way to let people publish these styles to a gallery- any specific features you guys want for that? Already have the ability to generate cover images, and you can like styles, add them to your own account, and see the accounts that post them.
Posting about the "my styles" feature again because you can literally make custom consistent styles for basically any type of asset. Want 32x32 game icons? Easy. Isometric buildings on a platform? Done. All it takes it telling the AI what to do and a couple example images. 😎
