Hi all - is there any provision or a workaround to either embed data or generate it within AppGameKit code and then assign it to a sprite rather than loading it from an external image? Same for sound, any way of generating it from the waveform up? Hacky solutions welcome

CreateRenderImage() will create an image you can render to. SetRenderToImage() to begin rendering to that image. Now all the draw commands go to the image instead of the screen. When done, use SetRenderToScreen() to return rendering to normal. Now the image can be assigned to a sprite and drawn as normal. CreateImageFromMemblock() if you wish to draw to the image at the pixel level.

CreateSoundFromMemblock() for creating your own sounds in code.

There's also a good tutorial in Official Tutorial Guide 2 about making sprites from scratch for menu buttons. It actually doesn't use CreateRenderImage, but instead CreateSprite. Both methods work.
