Hey there,
I watched this video from Classic Mac Gaming and I think this could spark some new project.

I'm basically aiming to develop something that can:
- Be developed with CodeWarrior, because I'm into that now
- 68K
- Work at least in System 7, but ideally also in System 6
- Probably only B&W

I guess that toolkit is well known by some of you. Any comment or advice would be welcome. I don't know if that YouTuber is around (maybe @gruz ?), but if he's here... nice work and also nice if you can chime in!

I played with that toolkit in the ‘90s, didn’t love using it but can’t recall why — I think I just found getting all the offscreen CopyBits’ing right to be part of the fun.

This book is excellent by the way and covers animation among many, many other things. https://www.amazon.com/Tricks-Mac-Game-Programming-Gurus/dp/1568301839

Pretty sure the animation chapter is written by the same guy (Ingemar Ragnemalm) who created that sprite toolkit. https://macintoshgarden.org/author/ingemar-ragnemalm
