If you have an issue with say a blue which is too light you can usually darken it, whilst still keeping the overall colour pallet. This won’t work with colours like green, orange or gold as they don’t darken nicely.

There are a number of theming tools like Theming Designer or Paletton.com

which you can use to extend your current pallet to include some WCAG compliant colour variations.

My go-to color links (general color theory stuff): – https://paletton.com/ palettes with color theory and can generate the entire scheme. – https://medialab.github.io/iwanthue/ I want hue, uses k-means to separate out colors, great for graphs and getting contrast on those.

Looks useful for gradients. Strange that nobody mentions Paletton. It’s my go to tool when picking colors: https://paletton.com/ You start with the base, and then also get gradients to adjacent colors in the palette. Especially the triad and tetrad ones are useful.

In terms of coming up with a colour scheme I like paletton.

Could use a pipeline to this one website that scans colors from images and states their name, could be a quick new command like a special screenshot that is sent and scanned then named. Or a phone camera color scanner?
There are also other websitesthat could be useful..

Whatever it is, I bet it could work out.

Work out a colour scheme first, there are general selections (as RyotMakr said, green+gold+purple is what you’ll see most often as it’s the general depiction) but you can do what you want, really. There are a few very cool concepts in this sub (just scroll down past the 10th Edition hate and you’ll find them). Depending on your art knowledge, a tool like https://paletton.com might help to pick complementary colours.

Even with human tuning, you’d be hard pressed to find people with color sense this good. I wonder if there’s also some computation going on about clashing colors that it shies away from. Pretty simple to code if you look at something like https://paletton.com/.

As for how you might want to fit different HSV colors together, take a look at and play with this tool, and look at how they use the hue angle and offsets to pick colors that relate to the selected.

Having an approach with color theory made me realize the importance of it. I learned about harmony, the color scheme and support myself with technology. Since then, my cheat codes are https://paletton.com, adobe capture and the color picker.

Sure! I’m certainly no artist either, but a little knowledge about this stuff goes a long way. There are plenty of curated or algorithmic resources for picking nice palettes if you don’t feel up to the task of building one from scratch, like Lospec, ColorHunt, Coolors, and Canva. In my case, I used some basic color theory – I started with the greenish from FaB’s life icon which I use as the centrepiece in my app,…

– on paletton.com I picked a new color scheme – orange and red, and blue and indigo. One blue for the background and mouth, indigo for shadows, orange for lights, red for mouth and ears. In a color scheme, hue is the important part – while saturation and value can vary while keeping the color scheme intact.

Try something like this. You pick a color, and it gives you complementary colors. Here is one by Adobe.

You can use a free tool called MagicaVoxel which allows you to intuitively model voxel-based characters and props. You can then create a new mesh for every “frame” of animation and swap it out through GDScript / C#. I used this method in my Pac-Man VR game (check my post history). For more complex environments and terrains, such as that of Minecraft, you can use a height map based approach. Stick to a limited and…

The C++ tutorial uses libtcod’s constant named colors, and switching these out with colors from Paletton has always been an improvement whenever I’ve done so. The previous colors for the HP bar were called dark red but they’re simply not dark enough.

I’d really recommend everyone to use a color scheme designer like Paletton or at least avoid the colors built in to libtcod. You should be naming your colors, not getting arbitrary colors from names.
