I wonder, does it just let you draw pictures based on the as-advertised color and resolution limitations, or does it take into account clever programming tricks that can increase the color count (with some limitations)?

Also, does it take other limitations of the platforms (such as two colors per 8x8 grid on Spectrums and similar limitations on C64 etc) into account?
