Native sprite editor for Commodore 64. Pocket knife among sprite editors.

*Psst! This is a native editor for the C64 itself. If you are looking for the __more modern tool to edit C64 sprites__ - checkout my other project [__Master of Sprites__](https://github.com/tstamborski/master-of-sprites).*

## Overview
Sprite Studio 64 is a native sprite editor for Commodore 64 computer.
It's made with simplicity but also handy and useful as possible.
Sprite Studio 64 can edit simultaneously 64 sprites - only 64 but it has also some tools for animating them and sprite overlay.
It can save your work on diskette in a PRG file - this files can be loaded by basic LOAD command or be embedded in an assembly source code.
**Diskette image for the latest version is [_here_](https://github.com/tstamborski/sprite-studio-64/releases/download/v1.2/Sprite-Studio-64.d64).**

Thanks to scener **Soci** for a patch fixing program to doesn't use fixed 8 device number in loading/saving routines.

## Building from source instructions
For building from source, you can use shipped make.bat batch file, but you will need following tools somewhere in PATH environment variable:
* **TMPx** assembler.
* **cc1541** tool for creating commodore floppy images.
* **Exomizer** cruncher - for packaging/zipping prg files.

If you want to use run.bat and runhelp.bat it will be nice to have **VICE** x64.exe somewhere in the PATH too.
