Sprite Foundry Packs
Sprite Foundry Packs is a collection of production-ready 48px pixel-art sprite packs, each published independently to npm. Every pack ships 8 character variants with full 8-directional coverage and 3-layer maps (albedo, normal, depth) for dynamic lighting and parallax effects.

What you get per pack

Why 3 layers?
Section titled “Why 3 layers?”| Layer | Purpose | Use case |
|---|---|---|
| Albedo | Base color sprite | Standard rendering, retro-style games |
| Normal | Per-pixel surface normals | Dynamic lighting (torches, spells, day/night) |
| Depth | Height/elevation data | Parallax scrolling, occlusion, shadow casting |
Most engines can use just the albedo layer. Normal and depth maps unlock advanced visual effects when your engine supports them.
Quick start
Section titled “Quick start”npm install @sprite-foundry/fantasy-heroes-48Then load sprites from node_modules using your engine’s asset loader. See the Getting Started guide for engine-specific examples.
