How would I go about creating a pixel art theme for a game? I don’t want to lower the resolution of the game, as it is supposed to render the game in the native resolution and I want crisp effects and text. Currently Godot makes a single pixel of the ui a single pixel on the screen. How would one go about fixing that? UI looks like this currently:

Do I really have to scale every control, or can I set it up for controls to automatically display its textures bigger?

EDIT: Here is a zoomed in version of the picture above. This should clarify of what I want to achieve (without having to zoom in)

    Ah, I see. I think you might need to specify your own pre-scaled texture for those then. By creating a StyleBoxTexture, as many as needed for all the disabled/hover/normal/… effects and use those in your theme. Which is not ideal, but that’s all I have.

    Otherwise, if you want to automatically scale your UI, you can have a look at the viewport suggestion from @magikmw and make an auto-loading node that does the necessary manipulations for you. Though it will scale everything, font and icon included.
