Now that I read it, the built-in import is comically similar to what I tried to do with the node tool hahaha...

I assumed this didn't exist based on videos I watched, I'm glad it does though. I guess at least I learned a bit about node and publishing stuff in npm, which I sorely needed. 😅

Ooh thanks I'll check the built-in export/import then, I didn't see that. Still learning how to use this.

The tool exports the palettes as reference but there're still a few refinements that could be added I suppose. It just exports an image with squares colored like the palette for reference.

Hi.

Been curious about TIC-80 for a long time, and the holidays looked like as good time as any to start learning. 

While I did that, I thought of writing a node script to help me with tilesets and spritesheets. This is it https://www.npmjs.com/package/tic80-image-tools. It exports tilesets and spritesheets from a lua cartridge into PNGs, so you can edit the images and reimport them to the cartridge with the same tool.

Come to think of it, now I wonder, maybe this already existed. I should have asked. But I guess I was having fun with the challenge.

I'm still testing and refining this. Let me know what you think.

Happy birthday to you! And thank you for sharing.

Loved your tiles! I started working with them in a companion app for Barbarian Prince, though it's stalled now for lack of a proper license. But it was fun and it only looks good thanks to you!

By the way, in order to make the tiles fit together I had to press some of them down a few pixels, particularly the cities and castles. But in the end they were a joy to work with.
