The default blend mode for sprites is "add." In add blend mode colors can only lighten, so black becomes invisible. Use EntityBlend to set your sprite to some other blend mode (the normal non-blending mode is 1, but for shadows you often want "multiply" blend mode to make the white background transparent.)
