GBAGameJam - Day 2

Okay lets do this. Lets try to get as far as I can doing this with assets from an old game.

This is the Butano Sprite Example..

void sprites_visibility_scene(bn::sprite_text_generator& text_generator)
    {
        constexpr const bn::string_view info_text_lines[] = {
            "A: hide/show sprite",
            "",
            "START: go to next scene",
        };

        info info("Sprites visibility", info_text_lines, text_generator);

        bn::sprite_ptr red_sprite = bn::sprite_items::red_sprite.create_sprite(0, 0);

        while(! bn::keypad::start_pressed())
        {
            if(bn::keypad::a_pressed())
            {
                red_sprite.set_visible(! red_sprite.visible());
            }

            info.update();
            bn::core::update();
        }
    }

But really the only thing we need is bn::sprite_ptr red_sprite = bn::sprite_items::red_sprite.create_sprite(0, 0);

Also have a look at how to do imports to get your image files into Butano.

So lets draw something to the screen...
