Dan’s Tile Maker
I’ve been looking at a bunch of you guys’s posts declaring what things you’re going to use to make your games. I was hoping to come across something like sfxr for tiles but didn’t. Long story short, I made one. Maybe you’ll like it. More information and download links including source here.
In case it’s mandatory, I’ll say that I’m in for LD23, and in case it’s useful, I’ll probably be using:
-HTML5 canvas element and Javascript
-Notepad++ for coding
-Firefox and Firebug for debugging and procrastinating
-Audacity and sfxr for sound effects
-Dan’s Tile Maker, MS Paint, and GIMP for graphics
-Dropbox for hosting
-AutoHotKey and Foobar2000 for not going crazy

The program doesn’t work for me on Windows 7, so I can’t run it. But what do you mean by sfxr for tilemaps? You mean just a random terrain generator? I don’t understand the benefits of that.

Hi. In fact I developed in Windows 7… do you have a more specific description of how it fails? It’s built for 32bit, which I assume works on 64bit.

Oh, I thought it was for tile mapping, not tile graphics. Hmm. Still cool though.
