> *⚠️ This example does not include the preloading of assets.*

```javascript
import {Stage} from '@theatrejs/theatrejs';
import * as PLUGINASEPRITE from '@theatrejs/plugin-aseprite';

import asepriteHero from './hero-16x16.aseprite';

class Level1 extends Stage {
    onCreate() {
        this.createActor(
            PLUGINASEPRITE.FACTORIES.ActorWithSpritesheet({
                $aseprite: asepriteHero,
                $loop: true,
                $tag: 'idle'
            })
        );
    }
}
```

```javascript
import {FACTORIES} from '@theatrejs/theatrejs';
import * as PLUGINASEPRITE from '@theatrejs/plugin-aseprite';

import asepriteHero from './hero-16x16.aseprite';

class Level1 extends FACTORIES.StageWithPreloadables([PLUGINASEPRITE.FACTORIES.PreloadableAseprite(asepriteHero)]) {
    onCreate() {
        this.createActor(
            PLUGINASEPRITE.FACTORIES.ActorWithSpritesheet({
                $aseprite: asepriteHero,
                $loop: true,
                $tag: 'idle'
            })
