I don't understand the question. Are you looking for a tool which converts images to 1-bit? With dithering to simulate greys?

This art is super cool, btw! Where can I find more?

yes I'm looking for C algorithms for that. I just searched for "1bit old-school image"

Search for Floyd Steinberg dithering. That's the algorithm used by a lot of classic Mac software.

This web utility seems like exactly what you're describing. I think this was a small app someone made for themselves while developing a game for Playdate. The source might be available on their Github. If not they seem friendly, you could ask for it.
