I don't understand anything in the sprite management of the Amiga. I've seen the fantastic website of Codetapper but it is far too complex for me :/

If there is only 8 hardware sprite on the Amiga how did they manage to do games like Lemmings, SWIV, Battle Squadron that have much more animated objects on screen ?

Really embarrassing question for me
