SAT is a package for Macintosh game programmers, for making sprite-based games. It has been used for making a fairly large number of games, including Bachman, Ingemar's Skiing Game, Asterax, Missions Of The Reliant, CyberNation and many others.

SAT is Freeware - copyrighted but free of charge. The only demand when you release a program made using SAT is that a free copy of the program is made available to me (Ingemar R) and that credits are given in the documentation/about box.

SAT supports Think Pascal, Think C, MetroWerks Pascal and Metrowerks C. PowerMacs are supported for the MetroWerks compilers (i.e. CodeWarrior). SAT works on any Mac (though it is up to the programmer to make the code calling SAT compatible). It has some support for calling it from C++, and a C++ interface will be available soon.

SAT can use Toolbox calls or custom direct-to-screen blitters. It includes five sets of custom blitters for different screen depths and systems, and it is possible to plug in more.

SAT comes with a rich set of demo programs, ranging from a tutorial and simple demos to the complete game HeartQuest.
