  const int ScreenWidth = 800;
  const int ScreenHeight = 450;

  InitWindow(ScreenWidth, ScreenHeight, "raylib [core] C++ example - basic window");

  Sprite = LoadTexture("PathToSpritesheet/SpriteName.png");
  Location = {300.0f, 200.0f};

  SpriteAnimator.AssignSprite(Sprite);

  while (!WindowShouldClose())
  {
    // Update
    SpriteAnimator.Play();

    // Draw
    BeginDrawing();
    ClearBackground(RAYWHITE);

    DrawTextureRec(SpriteAnimator.GetSprite(), SpriteAnimator.GetFrameRec(), Location, WHITE);
