tayicknay Posted November 24, 2017 Share Posted November 24, 2017 Hey, what's up? I am just starting with Phaser. I have background in PHP and jQuery, but I am no artist really. I am thinking of hiring a real artist if my proof of concept fares well among my friends, but for now, is there a simplistic tool that could get me started with drawing maps. I am thinking of just putting up state that draws the current town-map, and the player can click on buildings to enter them (shops, home/base, and houses with NPCs). Maybe something like drag and drop sprites like mountains and trees? Thanks for help. I am loving Phaser. To be honest, making games seems much simpler than I first thought it would be. I was starting to download Unreal Engine and Blender and whatnot. Pfft. Phaser is pretty cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, but not what I'm looking for. Guess I was asking too much of work to be done on my behalf lol, especially now that I've done some more reading. What I am looking for can be done, but I am out of my domain. Seems like I will have to draw out some sketches and load em up into gimp. I thought there was a repository of 2d images that can be loaded up into a software and just placed randomly. Thing is I'm not sure I want a tiled controllable sprite. More like text-driven with occasional battle sequence, and pretty backgrounds that would in fact be areas, with npc and locations just icons.
