In the previous example, we simply flipped back and forth between two tiles on our tile sheet. Next, we are going to create a method that uses a tile sheet to play through a series of images. First, let’s look at the new tile sheet, created by using tiles from SpriteLib. Figure 4-7 shows the example sprite sheet, tanks_sheet.png; we will refer back to this figure throughout the chapter.
As you can see, it contains a number of 32×32 tiles that can be used in a game. We will not create an entire game in this chapter, but we will examine how to use these tiles to create a game screen. In Chapter 9, we will create a simple maze-chase game using some of these tiles.
