It looks like Tracy hasn't been on the site in a while. However, as a general rule, all art hosted on OpenGameArt is free to use, even in commercial projects. However there are nuances you should be familiar with.
On the left panel of the screen, you can see that Tracy chose to release this under the CC-BY 3.0 license. This means that you may use this artwork as long as you follow the terms: (1) You provide attribution (which you already say you will do), and (2) in your distribution, you don't apply additional measures that restrict others from using the art in ways permitted by the license.
Number (2) can be tricky if you release your game on a platform that imposes some DRM, or imposes its own restrictive license on your work. The Apple App store is an example of a platform which imposes a stricter license on all its content, and thus the prevailing view is that you cannot distribute CC-BY artwork over the Apple store, unless you are able to get a special exemption from the owner (Tracy).
@peteris You may. On the left panel of the page you can see that I released this sprite under the CC0 license, which is effectively public domain. That means you may use it in any way, including commercially. Furthermore you are not required to mention me in your credits, though it is always appreciated to get a link to my OGA page somewhere in your project. And I'd love to see how you use it, so as your game progresses it would be super cool to see screenshots here!
First of all, WOW! These are incredible! Second, I recommend that you separate your tag list by commas, so it's not all one long tag. Finally, I think you'll have to remove Gandalf, because as great as it is, people might get in legal trouble for intellectual property infringement if they used it in their commercial game. I think the rest are okay, and again, REALLY top notch!
These are awesome!
Nice!
Nice!

Holy crap, tell me you have made this game. Cyberpunk pizza delivery should be its own genre! These sprites are so full of character!!!
BTW - the game you linked looks great! Were you involved in its development? Anyway, I went ahead and thumbed it up on Greenlight!
This is awesome! I love how the layers build, and the classic retro feel.
Thanks everyone!

Thanks! I'm glad to see people are getting use out of this!
