i'm wondering what "MAP_WIDTH = 64" does in the following code. It is taken from an episode in a series of videos on Java 2d game engine design and i have linked the video in question. The sprite sheet being used is a 256 x 256 .png with grids/tiles/sprites(?) of 8 x 8. The sprite sheet is only using 4 colours and they are setting each of these 4 colours to something else within the code. The following code is in the first minute of the video linked at the bottom. (some variables relating to the rendering omitted) I cant for the life of me figure out what is going on. Where does the 64 come from? The only thing i can see is that there are 64 pixels in a 8 x 8 grid, but then why multiply this

Well i have been watching a couple of videos of youtube on how take sprites from a spritesheet (8x8) and i really liked the tutorial by DesignsByZepher.

So I have been trying to follow a tutorial But it isn't working. It is a tutorial on making a sprite sheet with JFrame. I could get other things to work, but for some reason this won't. It is supposed to display a tiled image, but instead it displays a black screen.
