Console?
Given that the game is being written with their in-house engine called halley which supports consoles (was used for Wargroove), the answer is most likely yes.

Witchbrook FAQ
It was originally in another programming language called Rust, but the programmer that knew that program left. Amzertul made an amazing engine with Wargroove called halley and we felt that it would be perfect for WB. Focus was shifted to Wargroove for a while, and then witchbrook started to be recoded. At this time the artstyle was changed to isometric.

Not pixpil, but our own engine which we use to make pixel art titles is open source.

What engine do you use and why did you choose it?
We used my own game engine (Halley) for both Wargroove & Witchbrook, no regrets at all! It's definitely a lot of work, but owning the entire stack gives you a lot of advantages. I posted a Twitter thread with my thoughts on the pros and cons a while ago, if you're interested.

Can't make my mind about which engine to use
libGDX is great, but I can understand if it's not for some people. This also applies to love2d, raylib and Monogame
