Where pixels take root.
BitRoot started with a simple idea: get a game out of someone's head and onto a screen.
Bit comes from the digital — from pixels, from the small pieces that add up to entire worlds. Root comes from roots: from what starts small, grows slowly and finds its own way.
Today BitRoot is an independent studio from Brazil run by Alessandro Palermo, making original pixel art games.

- The digital. The pixel. The smallest piece a world is made of.

Solo developer
My name is Alessandro Palermo. Before I started building worlds in pixel art, I worked in marketing, and I've spent more than eight years doing motion design.
The Only Eye started as a personal idea. Over time it grew well past what I imagined and turned into a project where I touch nearly every part of development: story, systems, gameplay, classes, progression, art direction — everything that helps this world take shape.
BitRoot came out of that same process: a place to turn ideas that only existed in my head into games other people can explore.
