Sprite used in a sentence

Sprite in a sentence as a noun

Don't use a premade sprite sheet with 100 icons on it, where you only use 8. Make your own.

Even went as far that I had a song playing in the intro and a sprite moving. Wow!

One single, solitary sprite graphic got modified for this release. I always wondered about color choices for some games' health packs.

I implemented a similar dynamic lighting solution for sprites back in 1997. I used 3D models though that were rendered and then the pure colors and Z-buffer were captured for dynamic lighting effects.

To display a picture, the software must run in lockstep as the electron beam traces down the screen, changing sprite bitmaps and colors and positions each scanline as appropriate. In other words, the 2600 literally uses the phosphor on the physical TV screen as the frame buffer.

Note that many 3D games need 2D components for menus, HUDs and general UI. Most Unity developers were paying an extra 100-200 dollars for 3rd party plugins that brought in better text handling, sprite atlassing, drop shadows, etc. Even if you're not planning to make a 2D game it's a big upgrade of the tool.

For example, all the hullabaloo about creating basic sprite-based games or simple WebGL models. Such stuff has been possible on the desktop for many years, but suddenly because it's in a browser everyone seems to lose their mind over the technical amazement of such developments.

Codea is a gorgeous Lua development environment with a great on-device editor and great libraries for sprites, sound, touch, accelerometer, and physics. For some things, the Codea editor is better than what I use at work. For instance, if a function takes a color value as an argument, when the cursor is in that character position, a color picker pops up. Likewise, when using the sprite command, instead of typing in a name you can open a popover that displays a list of sprites on the device.

Zombies has really really well balanced game play: many game designers, even of quite popular games, are winging the game play, while paying incredible attention to things like sprite animations. I have personal experience at a game company where the atmosphere rendered on planets took weeks to perfect: implementing the behavior of light through atmosphere so accurately that if you flew so close to the planet that you crosses /into/ the atmosphere it was still correct.
