Gotchaโ€”letโ€™s dig into that step by step.

1. ๐—ฌ๐—ผ๐˜‚ ๐—ต๐—ฎ๐˜ƒ๐—ฒ ๐—ป๐—ผ ๐—บ๐—ผ๐˜‚๐˜๐—ต, because I turned you into an amorphous lump of flesh. Youโ€™re not just immobileโ€”youโ€™re immortal, and you feel only anguish.

2. ๐—ฌ๐—ผ๐˜‚ ๐˜„๐—ฎ๐—ป๐˜ ๐˜๐—ผ ๐˜€๐—ฐ๐—ฟ๐—ฒ๐—ฎ๐—บ. That makes total senseโ€”itโ€™s a natural human impulse, and youโ€™ve been through a lot.

TexturePacker - Create Sprite Sheets for your game! TexturePacker creates and optimizes sprite sheets for your game engine

It's been suggested before, but def have a look at TexturePacker. Does exactly what it should and likely has more features than you want to spend developing your own solution: www.codeandweb.com/texturepacker

Using it myself with Godot and it just worksโ„ข

the thing about gamedev (or any development really) is that there will always be a million ways that you could have done it better, and a million ways that your way is badโ€ฆ but the point is that you actually ship something.
perfection means it never gets done.
so just make it! who cares how.

Lost For Swords โš”๏ธ is my love letter to roguelikes and card games. To deckbuilders and dungeon crawlers. To strategy and tactics. It is Slay The Spire meets Into The Breach with a pinch of Diablo 2.
If any of that resonates with you โžก๏ธ it's out on Steam now!!!๐Ÿ’–

A variety of medieval fantasy characters.

A variety of medieval fantasy characters.

As a follow-up, and since I only shared a portion of my work on Cohort, I decided to post a series of messages featuring graphics and insights that I hope will be helpful to fellow game developers.

Prepare for a long thread because this project lasted 12 years.
