I spent a couple of hours on each of the past three days to write a simple tool for the C64 which can be used for the creation of tile based pixel art using the character set(s) of the C64 as tiles or in short, to create PETSCII art.
So here it is
PETSCII paint,
release page<- has screenshots and links to "making of" ^^ (
direct link to v.0.4 /
direct link to v.0.5 )
Now I just need to create something nice with it so I can post it here.
edit/update:
v.0.4: previously saved creations can now be overwritten and backspace key in filename entry works now
v.0.5: individual foreground/background color per character, all characters from both charsets available at the same time, faster save/load, character selector mode, new hardware (sprite) cursor (0.5 is actually a complete rewrite of the tool in C)
