A focused Commodore 64 pixel editor for Windows.
Pixcen Deluxe is a specialized pixel editor for creating Commodore 64 graphics with modern editing comfort and C64-aware constraints. It is designed for pixel artists, game developers, and demosceners who need artwork that can survive the realities of VIC-II color limits, memory layouts, sprites, character sets, FLI modes, and export pipelines.
Main features

Hardware-aware color work
Use the C64 palette with constraint feedback, color limitation overlays, color-source tools, bitpair remapping, protected colors, and color priorities.
Pixel drawing tools
Draw with freehand brushes, lines, splines, curves, rectangles, ellipses, regular polygons, flood fills, gradients, symmetry, text, clone, and selection tools.
Layers and animation
Organize artwork with layers, frame-based animation, frame navigation, export tools, onion skinning, and animation brushes.
JavaScript automation
Extend Pixcen through the embedded V8 engine with scripts, algorithmic brushes, shader fills, custom filters, custom tools, exporters, and console experiments.
Import, export, and preview
Use the native .gpx project format, modern image formats, C64 formats such as Koala/Art Studio/Doodle/Amica/SpritePad/CharPad, raw data, assembly, PRG export, and CRT-style preview.
