Description

  1. Export palettes as pngs (~16x16 images with a palette set on them)
  2. Export 2-8 bpp art as indexed color images
    Difficulty: low, but at least consider options for code reuse (probably none)

Research direction

Start by locating the gfx debugger's existing export entry points and palette handling. Check how image formats are currently written, then implement palette PNG export and indexed-color export for 2–8 bpp art; done means both export cases produce the requested PNG images.
