TilePipe

TilePipe is a cool tool that makes it super easy to create tilesets for all your design or development projects. You can export them in PNG sequence format or use a Godot-ready format. How great is that?

What Are Tiles?

When you're building 2D games or setups, you often use something called tiles to create the scenery. Think of a tile as a rectangular shape that fits together with other similar shapes in a grid. When you put a bunch of these tiles together, you get what's called a tileset.

Your Tileset Editor

TilePipe is an awesome tileset editor where you can customize how your designs look, their size, and where they sit on the grid. This app lets you take individual pieces and arrange them exactly how you want before exporting them for further use in your development process.

User-Friendly Interface

The interface is really intuitive! It’s split into three main sections: 'Input,' 'Template,' and 'Result.' In the 'Input' section, you can upload your texture model and set up how the tiles will be generated. You can choose to make each tile from four quarters or just use a center piece. Plus, there are options to adjust overlay presets (like using 4, 8, or 13 tiles) and tweak merge and overlap amounts.

Visualize Your Designs

The 'Template' field lets you see the tile patterns in action through graphical sequences. You'll notice numbers over the tiles showing how they connect with their neighbors.

Customizable Templates

You have options for different template types like blob, wang corners, RPG-maker styles, double blob, and even the chance to input your own custom template!

A Must-Have for Game Designers

With TilePipe, you get to personalize your layout and add custom tile models or templates. This makes it an incredible tool for game designers and developers alike!

Straightforward Outputs

The output methods are super simple too! You can generate PNGs or create Godot 3.x tileset resources without any hassle. If you're ready to check it out more thoroughly, feel free to download TilePipe here!
