Can I import my tilesets/tilemaps from Pyxel to Unity 4.3?

edit: I found this, but I was hoping for a free way to do it http://www.platoevolved.com/blog/unity-plugins/#!/~/product/category=2743024&id=32163870

I don't know about any free importers, and I haven't tried it myself yet, but it should be fairly straight forward to do I think.

For importing the tileset using Unitys sprite editor maybe this tutorial helps

Here is an example for importing a json tilemap in AS3 that you might be able to port. Perhaps C# has better support for XML than JSON, not sure.

I might try this and put up a simple example soon.
