2bit PXLR Studio

2bit PXLR Studio is a custom ROM ("firmware") for the Game Boy Camera targeted on accessing the full potential of the original Game Boy Camera's sensor, as well as giving photographers more control.
It is meant to be used with HDR's flashable Game Boy Camera PCB.
For convenience there's also a itch.io page.
You can also tag your images with #2bitpxlr or use the hashtag #2bitpxlr on Twitter.

Current features:

• Most settings of the camera's sensor are already configurable
• Images can be saved, deleted and printed
• Sensor settings are being saved across restarts. To reset hold start+select on boot

Feedback

Remember: I can only improve things I know about!!
If you have actually used this ROM any type of feedback is very much appreciated. Please provide any feedback via the issues.
Feedback includes but is not restricted to things like:

• "I'd like to have feature XX"
• "I've used the following combination of parameters which work really well/bad"
• "When I set param XX, I'd also like param YY to change"
