Introduction

If you're writing a game for the CPC this cross-development GUI tool will allow you to generate ready-to-use sprites and loading screens for the CPC in assembly language.

NOTE this initial release doesn't include any error checking so may crash at inopportune moments - save your work regularly.

This software is free and open source. It is very much work in progress, so if it breaks or is confusing, let me know!

Features
