A tilesheet is a graphics file that contains a collection of tiles used to design 2D games. These tilesheets are often rectangular grid images consisting of an arrangement of squares or rectangles, where each square or rectangle represents a single tile. Tilesheets are a convenient way to organise multiple tiles into a single file. They are help to efficiently use recurring graphic elements such as floor tiles, walls, characters, objects and other environmental features in games. Instead of separate image files for each tile, they are bundled into one tilesheet, making resource management and loading in games easier.
