Prison Backgrounds — 150 Pixel Art Scenes

Intake to escape — a whole prison in pixel art.

150 scenes · 320x160 native + 1280x640 · $5

Two sizes in the download

• 320x160 — 1 pixel = 1 dot. The true resolution. Scale it yourself with nearest-neighbour.
• 1280x640 — the same image scaled by a whole number (4x, nearest-neighbour). No resampling, so pixels stay square however far you zoom.

Both folders have all 150 scenes at exactly the same size, so they drop straight into Godot, Unity, Ren'Py or RPG Maker.

How they were made

Generated with a fixed recipe (Seedream 4.5, 4:3), cropped to 2:1, then run through

pixel-grid detection so the dot grid could be rebuilt and scaled by whole numbers.

Every file was checked by eye against a labelled contact sheet.

These are AI-generated images.
