# pixsy
a tool for [Bitsy Game Maker](http://bitsy.org).
upload any image and convert it into a room.
## credits

makes use of my own [bitsy parser](https://crates.io/crates/bitsy-parser) library.
uses the [Croppie](https://foliotek.github.io/Croppie/) image crop plugin
by [Foliotek](https://www.foliotek.com/)
uses [wasm-bindgen](https://crates.io/crates/wasm-bindgen) to automate WebAssembly bindings.

## bugs
when importing images, some pixels have errors.
it seems to only happen for pixels surrounded at the top and left:
```
111 111
100 => 110
100 100
```

pixsy does not work in the Itch desktop program
because their bundled version of Chromium does not support WebAssembly.
## to do
* add alternative dithering options (Atkinson, Bayer 8×8)
* add a 'smoothing' (noise reduction?) stage to remove errant pixels
## could do
* reimplement tile reuse option
* add camera support so users can take a pic instead of uploading an image
* allow user to draw to canvas
