Hey guys,
first of all I am really sorry if I make any mistakes while posting to the forums as I have never done that before.
I am working on a little 2D Platformer game where all the objects will need to be pushed around and will have constant forces applied to them. Therefore they are suppossed to bounce around and rotate alot. To achieve this effect I wanted to simulate the pixel artsytyle and screen size of something like Celeste but with a much higher resolution to effectively rotate my sprites without them looking off or having a typical pixelart sprite rotation. After about 10 hours of trial and error I finally gave up and am asking this question here on the forum:
How do you properly set up a Grid that matches the screensize perfectly? My tiles are all 8x8 Pixels, so naturally I thought that all resolution divideable by 8 should do, but every time the Grid ends up being like 2/3 off for one row. I tried so many resolutions and none of the larger ones worked.
I want to use a pixel look but basically scaled up, so that for example every pixel in my sprites will be displayed by 2x2 or 4x4 pixels onscreen. My main problem is that I just cant get the math to work out the way I think it should with the Grid. If my tiles are lets say 8x8 pixels and I want to go for a resolution like 320 x 200 it would work, but just multiplying the numbers by 4 (1080x800) seems to set everything off grid and make it that the camera does not align with the grid anymore.
