  1. draw a black and white image(120*29) by any tool you like.

    • Recommend PNG file (Other formats are not tested).
    • You can use this wonderful tool Pixilart.

  2. Use the provided tools to convert the image into a binary file that will read by the game at runtime.

    • The python script for convertion can be download here. Require Numpy and Pillow.
