That went well…

Graphics programming in BASIC and assembler on the CPC and Joyce.

Some topics covered: 2-D plotting and diagrams, 3-D vector graphics, light pen input, sprite generation, GSX, and detailed descriptions of graphics ROM routines.

The floppy disc with example programs was not included with the book, but could be purchased extra.
