[Coco] DynoSprite Demo 1

[Richard Goedeken]

Thanks for the kind words Nick.  I agree that good documentation is very 
important.  I will probably write a higher level overview document before 
releasing the code, but the low level documentation has evolved inside of and 
along with the code.  I don't anticipate having the time to devote to 
providing commercial-level support to DynoSprite, but primarily I would like 
to see it used as widely as possible.  I'm hoping that an open source license 
would help to achieve this.

Once I get into the game development I'll find some dev tools for making 
pixel/sprite art and tilemaps, and I'll write/modify scripts as necessary to 
use the output from these tools with DynoSprite.  Other developers using the 
engine could use the same tools, or modify the scripts as necessary to work 
with different tools.  Really DynoSprite is a means to an end for me, which is 
the action/adventure game.  I've been having a lot of fun thinking about what 
kind of elements could be included in the game.
