RX.py (gitlab.com/pvmm/rx.py) is a Python script that prepares images for rendering them on the MSX2 blitter using this method described by Laurens Holst. It can be quite efficient compressing images rich in flat polygons, replacing the original image by a bunch of line segments (which are both easy to store and draw) and recreate the original image using the MSX2 hardware blitter (which is relatively fast).
