TMEditor: Your Free 2D Game Map Creation Tool

TMEditor is a free, versatile tool designed for easy creation of 2D game map layouts. Beyond basic tile placement, you can define abstract elements such as collision zones, enemy spawn points, and power-up locations. All this data is neatly saved in the standard .tmx format.

1. Define your map dimensions and base tile size.
2. Import your tilesets from image files.
3. Position the tilesets on the map.
