Import Tilesets
Add one or more image files as tilesets — perfect for backgrounds, terrain, and decorative elements. -
Paint Your World
Use the Stamp, Rectangle, and Copy/Paste tools to lay down tiles across multiple layers. -
Place Custom Objects
Add abstract game elements like:- Enemy spawn points
- Player start positions
- Triggers and pickups
- Custom logic markers (via properties)
-
Export Your Map
Save your work as a.tmxfile — the universal standard for 2D game maps. -
Integrate into Your Game Engine
Import the.tmxfile into engines like Godot, Unity, Love2D, Tiled, or any framework that supports Tiled’s TMX format.
