+Writes a pixel of the specified color to a framebuffer at the given coordinates.
+
+```c
+void 
+put_pixel(
+    framebuffer_e framebuffer,
+	unsigned int x, 
+	unsigned int y, 
+	uint32_t color
+);
+```
+
+| Parameter | Description |
+| --- | --- |
+| `framebuffer` | The framebuffer to write to. Either `BASE` or `OVERDRAW`.  |
+| `x` | Horizontal pixel coordinate. From `0` to `ame_state->width - 1` . |
+| `y` | Vertical pixel coordinate. From `0` to `game_state->height - 1` . |
+| `color` | Pixel color. Format `0xRRGGBB` |
+
+| Return value | none |
+| --- | --- |
+
+| Edge case | Behavior |
+| --- | --- |
+| `x` or `y` is out of bounds | The pixel does not get written and the engine gives a console warning. |
+
+| Side effect | Description |
+| --- | --- |
+| Pixel write | Alters the contents of the given framebuffer if the coordinates are valid. |
+
+| Note | Description |
+| --- | --- |
+| Position in the rendering pipeline | This function is supposed to be called inside the function `game_state->engine_update_framebuffer` points to. The changes get rendered after that function ends. |
