With simple specifications inspired by retro gaming consoles, such as displaying only 16 colors and supporting 4 sound channels, you can easily enjoy making pixel-art-style games.
Pyxel’s specifications and APIs are inspired by PICO-8 and TIC-80.
Pyxel is open source under the MIT License and free to use. Let’s start making retro games with Pyxel!
