PSD file each unit is 64 x 64.įor each of these choices the art in unity increases resolution but not size: they are all still one unit in Unity by setting the Pixels Per Unit in the Inspector.ĪDDING STAND-ALONE SPRITES: You can combine Tilemap work with big sprites. (leave Compression and Filter Mode at defaults).
Painterly styles read better at a higher resolution:ģ2 x 32 pixels per square (see this 512x512 PSD file), set in Unity as 32 pixels per unit (with Compression = none and Filter Mode = Point (no filter) so the pixels are crisp and unblurred).
SIZING: Pixel Art vs Other Painted Styles:ġ6 x 16 pixels per square (see this 256x256 PSD file), set in Unity as 16 pixels per unit NOTE: You CAN also use multiple PNGs, but usually all the art for a level can be fit into one file.ĭifferent levels typically get different tilemaps (to show distinct places). Your Tilemap.png should include all intended background elements for a level. PART 4: Multiple Tilemap Layers can be created with varied scripts andĬollision Components that only effect the art painted into those Tilemaps.

Don't waste valuable spritesheet space on flips! The code will flip the character art when it "turns". Character Keyframes / Spritesheet: Only draw one horizontal direction, either left or right. The exceptions are UI buttons (can be sized for exact button size) and fixed backgrounds (1280x720).ģ. All PNGs SHOULD be power-of-two square, especially enironment tilemaps & character spritesheets.
All art MUST be PNGs, 72 ppi / dpi, without exceptions!Ģ. This tutorial covers Unity's Tilemap system for 2D projects (started 2017), how to make Pixel art, and a module on RPG dialogue boxes for viewing signage or speaking with NPCs.Īre you new to photoshop?
