Ah, looks like rubberduck set them up so the overflowing tiles are adjacent. I was wrong about the offsets. It's a 16x16 spritesheet with some tiles having overflow. So, here's how to split them out into individual tiles:

  1. open https://www.piskelapp.com
  2. click the "create sprite" button in the upper-right corner
  3. cick the folder icon "Import" along the right side
  4. click the "browse images" button beneath "Import from picture"
  5. navigate to your local copy of colony-other-ready.png and select/open it.
  6. on the Import and Merge dialog, select "Import as Spritesheet"
  7. enter a frame size of 16x16 with an offset of 0x0
  8. click "import"
  9. "This will replace your current animation. Are you sure you want to continue?" Yes.
  10. click the mountain icon "Export" along the right side.
  11. on the export dialog, find the [ Gif | PNG | Zip | Others ] tabs, select the "Zip" tab.
  12. click on the "Download ZIP" button at the bottom of the dialog.
  13. save your zip file somewhere you'll remember, then open and extract all the individual sprites!

The sprite dimensions for this sheet are not grid-aligned. They appear to be 16x16, but separate sections have different offsets, which makes this more of a "sprite-atlas" rather than a spritesheet. Can you tell me where this came from?

As mentioned in that other tread, I usually use GIMP, though Piskel also does well. It would help us understand what you're trying to accomplish if you would attach the spritesheet you're working with to this topic thread.

Don't be calling it before the finish line; there's 29 people participating and they still have 10 days to submit. I turned in my last jam submission with only 8 minutes left on the timer. :)

Well, I didn't join this one, but it inspired me to brush off some old projects and work on them, so I'd say that's a success. :)

I prefer GIMP: https://www.gimp.org/downloads/

There are simpler tools depending on what you need to accomplish, so it may help to tell us what you are trying to do and why piskel didn't have what you needed.

Right!? Botanic to the rescue. The certbot needed an update. Botanic had it fixed before noon Eastern Time.
