Sure, that’s a cool idea, I wonder if I could even add dithering : - 0 !  
I forgot about version 3 of this-- i’ll try to get that done ASAP!

Thanks! You could also add blending, where you can set the tint or opacity certain parts of a sprite using a number or something. Though you don’t have to do that, just a challenge.

hey @randomuser for some reason when I used @UnsignedArduino’s inventory extension I got an error saying I couldn’t add the transparency extension.

ah it appears like both of our extensions depend on different versions of arcade sprite utils (mine deps on 0.2.0, random’s deps on 0.6.0), so try adding transparency extension first, then inventory extension - make a backup of ur game before doing this, might have to do it in JS mode, not sure
