Is there a way to increase the 256 sprite limit? If not easily, can it be increased by changing defs somewhere?

Could you just use the other 7 banks to store additional sprites?

I can, but it would be limited to 2048 sprites with 8 banks, which for my use case is still kinda low

Wondering if using more banks is possible

You could also use 1 or 2 BPP sprites https://github.com/nesbox/TIC-80/wiki/Bits-Per-Pixel
Or you could store sprites data in the code.
But it's not possible to increase the sprite limit in the config file or whatever if that's the question.

Palettes with 4 colors are pretty good to make games with more sprites.
Take a look at these: https://lospec.com/palette-list/lospec-gb
