So in my game my brother really wants the trees to interact with the light with normal maps, but im i have no idea how. I thought it might of been a sprite effect but not sure.

We have a lighting feature , but I don’t know what 'normal maps" mean.

There was a plan to include normal maps, but as far as I understand it, there has been no update/progress since 2020:
Hi.
I think it would be nice if we were able to use normal maps with lights.
It could add some 3D lit and depth to our sprites.
Here is a gif demonstrating the difference between a flat texture sprite and one using normal map;

As to where to setup normal map in the editor. I think it could be a normal map light behaviour attached to sprite objects which would be like a normal animation editor except we can not add our own frames and animations, it would copy the animation prop…
The person working on the feature deleted the repository last year. I think he’s stopped working on it.
