Introducing my level editing tool LC123. Coming soon, but first we need a website to show it off. At the very least you can wonder about coding a map reader before you get your hands on this powerful toy.


MMF 2D Mapfiles: map files are an ini file with a .map file extention. The format is x_y_LayerNumber=TileX,TileY within a [MapX] group for multiple maps in one file.

The editor features 5 layers with 3 tilesheets. Layer 1 2 and 3 are background tiles. Layer 4 is Objects and layer 5 is hexadecimal numbers. An additional map group called [MapX_markers] contains the format x_y_=stringdata for custom text inside any grid space.

Collisions and animated backgrounds are supported, and a tile splitter is included. There are numerous options in each [mapX_options] group, and you can use presets.

Here is a list of default options (although you can add custom variables):

x1=0

y1=0

x2=100

y2=100

name=areaname

background=image.png

music=song.mid

tiles=backgrounds.png

objects=items.png

hex=datatable.png

tiles_x=8

objects_x=4

hex_x=16

tiles_y=8

objects_y=4

hex_y=16

tiles_anim_qty=4

tiles_anim_spd=100

fresh=1 // used by the editor

A Shiny Mega Gengar 🌟 For @ManutkArt 's #ThreeColorsChallenge!

Made my first ever animation.

Some time ago, we posted a screenshot of the Mexico level. A curiosity about it is that, like some other scenarios of the game, it was inspired by a real landscape, The Basaltic Prisms of Santa María Regla. It is one of the natural wonders of the country!

Hello my space friends! Now I added a space background to the ship. I love that space look but I still feel like stuff is missing. The lighting on the ship needs some improvements I think. Please tell me your opinion!

Distrust - HUMERUS (with dirty shade) Papyrus isn`t small. It's possible that I didn't draw him well, but he crouched down and bent towards us. I'm still bad at moments like this

Now spruce forest monsters can vomit forest shields, but Brutal Castle will not stop!
