Hi, I want to make a large project but I have a problem, my assets arent very situable to use a tilemap, I wanted to know if I can create a level using sprites only or is absolutely needed to use tilemap, does this affect performance?

Do you happen to have ehh…an image of a few of said textures, because it really depends on what you want to do with them, I would personally say use tilesets, but that’s without knowing what the textures themself would be used for

I would affect the performance if you use too many nodes, not if you use many images (that’s why tilemaps are effective). You can look at overriding CanvasItem::_draw() and using the CanvasItem::draw_*functions.
