Butano

Butano is a modern C++ high level engine for the Game Boy Advance.

This is the documentation for the Butano engine. To see a high-level overview, go to the GitHub main page.

Thanks to the Magnum Project for its awesome documentation! This documentation is heavily based on it.

The best way to get started is to read the guide to download, install and start using Butano. After that, there are various examples explaining most aspects of the engine. At last, check how to import your own assets in a game and take a look at the modules page. The frequently asked questions (FAQ) are worth a look too.
