Trump 16-bit Pixel Art Animation

This project contains Python scripts to generate a simple 16-bit style pixel art sprite of Trump, create an idle animation, and export a sprite sheet for use in Phaser 4.

Files

• create_pixel_art_frames.py: Generates pixel art frames and exports PNGs and an animated GIF.
• gif_to_spritesheet.py: Converts the animated GIF into a horizontal sprite sheet PNG.
• trump_idle_animation.gif: Generated animated GIF (after running create_pixel_art_frames.py).
• trump_idle_spritesheet.png: Generated sprite sheet (after running gif_to_spritesheet.py).

Usage

1. Install Pillow:

pip install pillow

### How to create the zip

1. Create a folder named `trump_pixel_art_animation`.
2. Inside it, create the three files above with the exact content.
3. Run the Python scripts in order.
4. Zip the folder using your OS tools or command line:

```bash
zip -r trump_pixel_art_animation.zip trump_pixel_art_animation/

phaser-game.js

this.load.spritesheet('trump_idle', 'path/to/trump_idle_spritesheet.png', {
  frameWidth: 256,
  frameHeight: 256
});

this.anims.create({
  key: 'idle',
  frames: this.anims.generateFrameNumbers('trump_idle', { start: 0, end: 2 }),
  frameRate: 6,
  repeat: -1
});
