Animating sprites

[0rki (Or)]

Hi,

I'm looking for information about animating sprites.
For example:

• Idle animation
• Death Animation

Would love to know if there's a recommanded way on how to do it and how to load the images for it

thanks

Take a look at the SDK examples like Level 1-1.

The SDK provides this way:
https://sdk.play.date/inside-playdate/#_animation

Loading images for use with animation:
https://sdk.play.date/1.12.3/#C-graphics.imagetable

But there may be other, easier options:

Dustin made this extra:
https://devforum.play.date/t/lightweight-animatedimage-library/4500

WhiteBrim made this extra:
https://devforum.play.date/t/animated-sprite-helpful-class/1884

I just set the frame of the Sprite manually!

Here's documentation for my lib:
