OVERLAND PARK, KS, UNITED STATES, June 16, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Cognichine announces the launch of Retro Pixel Camera (RPC), a mobile app that instantly transforms live photos and videos into retro-style pixel art, inspired by 80s and 90s video game aesthetics. Available on iOS and Android, RPC captures moments in real time with adjustable pixelated filters, delivering a nostalgic visual experience for retro gaming enthusiasts, pixel artists, and social media creators.
Unlike apps that apply effects to media after they are recorded, RPC applies its distinctive effects in real time on the device’s camera feed.
Default effects take inspiration from systems like NES, Game Boy, and SNES, but the effect settings are configurable. Users can express their style with custom color palettes and pixel sizes. The app’s sharing feature makes it easy to showcase RPC creations across social media platforms.
Developed by Derek Scherer, RPC reflects a commitment to blending nostalgia with innovation. “The vision was to make your phone show the world as pixel art, instantly,” said Scherer. Early users from retro gaming and pixel art communities have praised its interface and retro effects.
Retro Pixel Camera is available for download on the App Store and Google Play starting June 17, 2025. Visit https://cognichine.com/retropixelcamera/ for more details, including a demo video and sample outputs. Priced for the consumer market, so that a life captured in pixels is accessible to everyone.
