like wow, you're drawing rotated gun sprites instead of just rotating a single one.

Please elaborate

He wants a single sprite that's rotated by the engine instead of having sprites hand-drawn for each direction the gun could possibly be in.

The former option allows for smoother movement but looks extremely lovely, whereas the latter can only fire in eight directions but looks a lot better.

I was just curious if he was seriously suggesting the first option, since that would obviously not work well at all with the perspective the game is using (like you mentioned)
