Retro Diffusion in a visual AI workflow

Run Retro Diffusion in a visual AI workflow: pixel art and tileset generation with palette control, at provider list price.

Retro Diffusion in the NodeTool canvas

Fresh Retro Diffusion examples are on the way. Meanwhile, here's the NodeTool canvas where you'll run it.

Retro Diffusion generates pixel art. RD Fast is the quick option and RD Plus targets high quality, authentic pixel art. RD Tile generates pixel art tilesets.

The nodes take an input palette, a style, a background removal toggle, and tiling options on the x and y axes, which makes them useful for sprites and game assets.

NodeTool is bring-your-own-key, so you call Retro Diffusion through a provider you already use and pay that provider's list price. The table below lists the providers that serve it and the model ids their `--list-models` output reports.
