Parallixel – Parallax Scrolling Made Easy in Aseprite

Parallixel is an Aseprite extension that automates the creation of seamless parallax scrolling effects.

Originally inspired by Godot’s parallax system, it began as a personal tool to preview scrolling layers and mock up character movements  directly inside Aseprite, without relying on external tools. Now, it's a full-featured extension that makes parallax animation fast, intuitive, and entirely engine-free.

Reminder: Processing larger images and/or higher frame count may take additional time.

✨ Features:

• 🌀 Seamless parallax generation for sprites and animations
• 📽️ Works with static images or animated layers
• 🧭 Supports 8-directional scrolling
• 📐 Compatible with isometric, 45°, and custom scroll angles
• ⚙️ Auto-applies parallax to all layers with ease(You can customize the speed)
• 🎨 Multi-layer selection for independent or grouped scrolling
• 🕹️ Custom Cel Selection: Scroll only the cel(s) you select.
• ✂️ Region selection scrolling.

🔧 How to Use:

• Open Parallixel: Go to Edit > FX > Parallixel in aseprite's top menu.
• Manual Mode
  1. Set number of frames and scroll speed.
  2. Select one or more layers (or a group layer or  a range of cel(s)) to scroll.
  3. Choose scroll angle: "45 Degrees", "Isometric",  "Custom XY", or "Custom Angle"   
  4. Click a direction button
  5. Wait to process and generate the result
• Auto Mode

• Note:
  •    A whole number speed value produces a perfect loop
  •    A decimal speed creates smoother motion but may not loop seamlessly at the end of the animation
