Title: Vector Game Sprites?
Post by: jbarket on June 10, 2010, 10:34:29 am

Hey guys,

I'm working on art for my first cab. I want to insert some classic characters, but dropping sprites into an enormous, for print PSD isn't going to work. They'll have to be stretched way beyond the limits of sanity to be the right size.

Does anyone know of a resource for vectored game sprites? I'm looking for fish (big bertha, cheep cheeps) from Mario games, Donkey Kong... lots of other classics.

If you put PNG bitmaps in say InDesign and you stretch them, and output to PDF, you can blow them up very large without sacrificing quality while still maintaining small file sizes.
