About this project

I felt inspired to make Game Boy styled pixel art. Well more specifically I felt inspired to re-create the authentic look of the original Game Boy, with all its nostalgic little quirks. That faint pixel-grid and the way each LCD pixel casts a shadow because there’s a gap underneath them. That weird yellowish border outside the screen. The drop-shadow and off-centered screen edge because the actual screen is embedded a full millimeter under the plastic. And the way the picture is somewhat faded and hard to see. This Photoshop template makes it easy to take a 4-color black and white image and make it look like it’s on an actual Game Boy. Just make your picture 160x144 in size and use only 4 shades of grey from solid black to solid white.
