List of 2D Map Editors

From time to time i stumble across map editors for 2D games, sometimes useable, sometimes just demos and of course the occasional jewel. I finally decided to maintain a list post of my findings.

• GLEED2D Non tilebased map editor; Win only, requires XNA 3.1
• D2D Map Editor Tilebased; Win .net
• Tile Studio Tilebased; Windows
• Mappy Tile Map Editor Tilebased; Windows
• Tile Up - Map Editor Tilebased; Windows
• simple-map-editor Tilebased; Java
• Tiled, a generic tile map editor Tilebased; Old version in Java, newer QT/C++ with Support of Windows, Mac supports Hex and Iso maps
• Tile Mapper - Tile Map Editor Tilebased; Windows

And when you made a map you sure need to load it in your python powered game:

• Tiled TMX Map Loader for Pygame
• Mappy Exporter I wrote a Mappy Export some years ago. Exports the Map to an own xml format and theres some loader in trollshit engine
