To be able to use pixel art inside Unity we need to set the sprite Pixel Per Unit (PPU) value. But how can we set that for old SNES games?


Finding the PPU Value

The image above is using a grid of 16x16 pixels and shows before and after the player took one step forward. It's my assumption that one step forward from the player moves him by 1 meter in the game world.

Therefore, the images shows that he moved exactly 16 pixels to the right. This represents how long is 1 unit in the game world.

With that very important information, we can say that:

		
			16 pixels = 1 meter on Unity
		
	

Now we need to set this number for every sprite used in the game such as:

When starting a project to recreate any game is always a good call to research about the original technology powering it. This will help to understand better how the game works and how to implement it using new technologies.

After some weeks away, the first 0.1.0 version is available.

I'm starting a new fangame project today: https://gamejolt.com/games/blackthorne/599197
