Easy to use and shows much promise!GumpyFunction2023-10-14Version 0.82

I've spent 10 hours using this editor so far and found it to be a robust and extremely user friendly to use.

PROs

  • The copy paste feature makes it very easy to work quickly.
  • Navigation around the editor/levels is very straight forward and simple to understand.
  • The readme/how to use FAQ is well written and comprehensive.
  • Pretty similar to Lunar Magic. Especially the world map events setup so if you are familiar with that, then it's even easier to learn.

CURRENT CONs

  • Hard to know what the variant tiles do in the Toolbox/Tile Selector. For example, there are four crushed bricks to choose from but they all look the same without a description. One will leave a white background tile when destroyed, one a mid tone and one a hidden door tile etc. Would be great to hover the mouse over each tile to read a short description of what the properties of that tile are. Currently I am testing what it does and then just copy pasting existing tiles to avoid the Toolbox guess work.

All in all, I think this more than enough to warrant working on a variant Wario Land game. I'll be using this to create a remixed version of Wario Land, for sure. Thanks for putting it together!
