Starting 2D Project

Ok guys, you might have seen the thread I made here, well now i’ve started to make some sprites for my 2D game, and I want to start putting it together but I don’t know where to start. Most of the tutorials for Unity are on 3D games and I haven’t found one that talks about making 2D games. I really don’t know how to get a sprite into my game.

I don’t know how to get animations into my game either, it’s top down btw. Any help is greatly appreciated, and you’ll probably need to explain everything step by step because I don’t have much experience. I heard about a 2D tutorial being made, any ETA on that?

EDIT: Just to note, i’m using the trial version so no iPhone support yet.

You can look at this and this, which should get you going as far as 2D. Also look on the wiki for some sprite animation scripts. Though you should start out with the usual tutorials anyway, because most of what you learn in them applies to 2D as well as 3D.
