Avoid high-resolution or photorealistic details, smooth gradients, excessive shading, complex textures, realistic lighting effects, glossy or reflective surfaces, 3D rendering, blur effects, intricate patterns, high-poly models, vector art, watercolor or oil painting styles, excessive noise, hyper-detailed backgrounds, realistic proportions, soft edges, non-pixelated textures, overly detailed elements, and modern or futuristic design elements. Exclude overly complex color palettes, gradients, soft transitions, and smooth surfaces that don’t align with the sharp, blocky pixel art aesthetic.
