I'm planning to sell some graphics in a package on the marketplace (backgrounds, sprites and tile sets for platformers) Before I put anything up on the store, I'm wondering if anyone can offer some insight into the best way to package, organize and save sprites and background tile sets? After a little research I don't think there's really a "right" answer, but there's always a wrong way to do things, so any opinion on the best way to package 2D platformer graphics for the convenience of the user would be most appreciated!
I've looked through the marketplace for similar products and they all seem to be set up differently, but the trends tend to be...
1) A pack with every single sprite and background tile saved as it's own separate file, (Hundreds of files)
2) A pack with a series of separate sprite sheets and one large background tile sheet (A limited number of slightly larger files)
3) A pack with one or two master tile sheets, that contain every sprite and background image in the pack (One large file)
4) Mystery zip file users have to unpack and import themselves
Any insight or information about the best way to do this would be most appreciated!
