PimiEd

PimiEd is a basic map editor for my future tactics and strategy (RPG?) projects. It has a built-in, noise-based terrain generator similar to the one used in Zesty Chef Citrus,  but with more parameters. It is not intended to replace or compete with more full-featured general level editors, but it was intended to easily do things I had a hard time doing in tiled (such as heights).

Note: PimiEd is a work in progress with spotty development between my normal work and as such, some features you might consider crucial are completely missing as of right now. I'll try to add them as soon as possible! 🙇‍♀️🙇‍♀️

Web Version: There is now (as of 27 Aug 2022) a web version! Unfortunately it has an extremely limited utility as an actual tool, but it's useful for trying PimiEd out as a toy. I recommend downloading the .love archive or the windows fused executable for the full Pimiko Editor experience.
