Various routines for programming graphics and games on MSDOS and PC-compatible 16-bit systems

Assembly code for 8086 CPU

This is a work in progress

This project includes functions for drawing sprites on screen in CGA graphic modes:

• mid-res 320 x 200 pixels in 4 colors
• low-res 160 x 200 pixels in 16 colors composite video mode
• low-res 160 x 200 pixels, 16 colors Tandy 1000 graphics mode

Other graphic modes, such as EGA and Tandy mid-resolution may be supported in the future.

More functionality included:

• Sprite-sheet animation
• Keyboard interrupt handler
• Joystick support
• Using the PC Speaker for playing music
• Hardware scrolling
• Tile-based collision detection

For generating MSDOS executables, you need NASM. (I don't know if it works with other assemblers) A makefile is included for building the project with Make

This project has been tested on DosBox and PCem
