Dungeon Backdrop Floor 1 - Guardroom (pixel art)

Generated from: Handcrafted 16-bit era pixel art background for a 2D side-view roguelike dungeon deckbuilder, 16:9 landscape, dark fantasy medieval stone dungeon interior. PIXEL STYLE: the whole image is drawn on a coarse pixel grid equivalent to a 384x216 canvas and then upscaled with nearest-neighbour, so every pixel is a visible, crisp, hard-edged square block of one flat colour. Limited 32 colour palette. Visible checkerboard dithering for shading. Absolutely no anti-aliasing, no soft edges, no blur, no smooth gradients, no painterly blending. PALETTE AND LIGHT: cool grey and blue-grey stone with visible mortar lines, lit by WARM amber-orange torchlight from two burning wall torches. Warm light spills across the middle band of the walls; cool dark blue-grey and near-black shadow fills the corners, the ceiling vault and the entire lower third. Cold, damp, ancient, ominous but never gory. SCENE - FLOOR 1, the cleanest and warmest floor of the set: an ancient but fairly intact stone guardroom. Two wall torches both burning with small warm flames in iron brackets. A closed wooden plank door with black iron bands and a ring handle, set into the left of the wall. Two wooden barrels with iron hoops and a small stack of two wooden crates in the middle band. A wooden bench, a coiled rope, neat stone block walls with only hairline cracks, one thin cobweb strand high in a top corner, and two or three clean dry bones lying in the middle band. Flagstone floor is intact. COMPOSITION: the lower third of the image is a plain dark empty stone flagstone floor in cool shadow - simple flat stones only, no props and no busy detail - so user interface elements and character sprites can be read over it. The middle band (walls, door, barrels, crates, torchlight) carries the richest detail. The top band is a dark vaulted stone ceiling in shadow. Keep the lower left and lower right corners of the image quiet and empty. NO CHARACTERS OR CREATURES OF ANY KIND: the room is completely empty of living things. No people, no slimes, no rats, no spiders, no monsters, no ghosts, no animals, no statues of creatures, no faces. Only static environmental detail. Bones may lie on the stone as described but nothing gory, no blood. Avoid: flat vector art, smooth cartoon shapes, photorealism, 3D render, bright saturated colour, generic decorative filler, text, watermark, signatures, UI elements, frames or borders.
