PolyTouch is a new DS homebrew program from Rene C. Kiesler (or rck for short). Right now, it acts more as a demo than anything else - the developer promises to bring saving and loading in the future. Demo as it might be, it's powerful enough to get you preoccupied for a while yet.You'll find this application pretty useful if you also develop Ds homebrew games and such. Heck, if you don't, you might even find it useful if you're a vector artist! Here are some notes form the developer:
PolyTouch is a simple polygon manipulation program. In this version, you can change the nodes of a closed-polygon, having up to 25 nodes. This version is a proof of concept and in its early development stage.
Goal of the PolyTouch project is to provide a simple program for creating vector sprites for vector based Nintendo DS games. Examples include, but are not limited to, Tempest, Asteroids, Battlezone and made up games.
