NeoFlash Spring Coding Competition 07: Old School Library (OSLib) Sprites Lib
Homebrew coder phosphorous has just submitted an entry for the ongoing NeoFlash Spring Coding Competition, with this particular application named the Old School Library (OSLib) Sprites Lib.
For the guys wondering what an OSLib is, it’s a C library originally created by homebrew developer Brunni, and is designed to help homebrew coders develop 2D games, applications, and demos for the PSP.
As for the Sprites Lib, phosphorous explains that it “builds on top of OSLib to make animated sprites as easy as everything else in OSLib.” Here is the breakdown of features that people can expect from this application:
- Create an animated sprite with only an image, height, and width
- Animation plays and loops automatically
- Control the animation framerate
- Functions to play and stop animation
- Ability to reverse animation
- Animation can be flipped vertically or horizontally
- Set start and end frames of animation
- Jump to a specific frame
- Create multiple sprites from one sprite sheet
- Create different sized sprites from one sprite sheet
Full installation instructions await in the bundle README, along with details on how to create spritesheets for animated GIFs. Enjoy the download, and make sure to thank phosphorous for the effort!
