Just a quick demo of the 3D planet sprite converter script, it takes 2D textures and renders them into 3D globes. It then applys lighting effects and other layers before spitting out a 2D sprite which can be drawn in the game.I wanted to still have 3D planets but without the game dropping its FPS on older computers.

Then, when it reaches twitter, we use
