Design Limitations of Pyxel and Demand for Rust Support
Problem
Users note limitations in Pyxel's color and bitmap organization, desire to write games in pure Rust, and ask about AI policy and differences from PyGame, indicating specific needs for functional expansion and implementation language.
Pain points
- Limitations in color and bitmap organization reduce flexibility
- Lack of native support for writing games in pure Rust
- Questions about AI policy and differences from PyGame
Questions to verify
- Are you limited by Pyxel's color/bitmap organization?
- Do you have a desire to write games in pure Rust?
- What concerns do you have about Pyxel's AI policy?

had such a great time with Pyxel! was great fun to recreate some of the demo scene effects from my childhood. easy to setup and get coding and make some pixels "move" quickly. it has some inherit limitations (eg. how colours and bitmaps are organised) which gives you some satisfying challenges.

I wonder if it is possible to write the games in pure rust as opposed to Python. Would be a good excuse for me to learn more Rust.
