Gradient fill
If you used this tool on GIMP or Photoshop, it does exactly the same, but the amount of colors can be limited, and you can decide how much dithering it will include.
The gradient will be applied with the primary and secondary colors.
By default, it is limited to 4 colors, and the dithering is set to 60% on the transitions. You can change that on the settings
The gradient will be applied on the entire artboard, unless you have something selected, which will then, be limited to that selection.
Settings

tip10%~20% is a good range of values for a more retro feel.
