Isometric BuilderIsometric Map Maker Online
The Isometric Builder is a map editor for isometric pixel art. Every isometric pack in the Gridwright library is already loaded into it, so you build a village, a dungeon, a city block or a haunted mansion out of finished pieces instead of placing sprites one by one in your engine.
Blocks stack by their real heights, so hills, cliffs, stairs and ramps line up the way they will in your game. Paint paths and rivers, put up fences, walls and whole buildings, and place characters, animals and monsters with their shadows. Night mode and animation preview show the scene as players will see it.
When the scene is done, export it as a picture or an animated GIF for your store page, or as a scene for Godot or a map for Tiled and keep working in your engine.
