TIC-80 is an open source fantasy computer for making, playing and sharing tiny games.

There are built-in tools for development: code, sprites, maps, sound editors and the command line, which is enough to create a mini retro game. At the exit you will get a cartridge file, which can be stored and played on the website. Also, the game can be packed into a player that works on all popular platforms and distribute as you wish.

To make a retro styled game the whole process of creation takes place under some technical limitations: 240x136 pixels display, 16 color palette, 256 8x8 color sprites, 4 channel sound and etc.​

Features

  • Video and audio.
  • Button input and keyboard input.
  • Mouse input and mouse scrolling.
  • HTTP access (including surf).

Installation

The latest release is available in 3DSX format.
