I can finally import my CorelDraw & Photoshop files, and make my game even more betterPR is not a standard file format. So that the question, what game do the SPR files you have come from?

I think you made the right amount of changes & additions to make the editor more complete while keeping it as simple as possible for the end user. But I want to say if we can also put images(or spirites) in game instructions so that a user can easily understand that how to play.
