Game Maker

A sprite is often not a single image but a set of images that are shown one after the other to create an animation. In this way it looks like the character walks, a ball rotates, a spaceship explodes, etc. During the game, the sprite for a particular object can change. (So the character can look different when it walks to the left or to the right.) ................
