What is SMSGFX?
SMSGFX is tile editor to help you make graphics for retro games.
It runs entirely within your web browser and doesn’t require any software downloads or online cloud accounts to operate.
Using the available tools you can paint up your own tile based graphics, define colour palettes and arrange them in tile maps. When you’re done you can export your work into a format that the your target console understands for use in your projects.
If you have an existing game project, or graphics as image files then you can also easily bring those graphics into SMSGFX, work with them and then export them again for use in your project.
Projects are automatically saved as you work within your local web browser, with support for multiple projects that can be worked on concurrently in different browser tabs or windows.
