Retropixels is a cross-platform command line tool to convert images to a format that is supported by the legendary Commodore 64 (c-64) home computer. It can output images in the style of the c-64, and also executables that can be run on a real c-64.
Retropixels can be found on Github and in the npm repository
Moving towards a developer tool Link to heading
In this release, which is not backwards compatible, retropixels is moving more towards a developer tool for Commodore 64 fanatics. Some of the things that are supported:
- Sprites
- Output of hires pictures in Artstudio format
- Pixel-perfect conversion (no scaling, no dithering)
- Default output is Commodore 64 compatible data.
