I was able to locate iOS emoji PNGs that are 160x160 pixels (actually WhatsApp but they are roughly the same set). When I import them into XCode 7, however, they just appear as 1x.
Is there a way to make high-resolution (perhaps retina-friendly) emoji for use in an iOS game that uses SpriteKit to animate the emoji using Photoshop, OS X, or anything similar?
I appreciate any help!
