What is Tiled?

Tiled is like having a special game board that lets you build your own worlds for games or puzzles.

Imagine you have a big grid, kind of like a piece of graph paper, but instead of just lines and squares, each square can be a floor, a wall, or even a ladder. You get to pick what goes where, like arranging blocks in a toy box. This lets you design levels for games, like Mario or puzzles you solve on your phone.

How Tiled Works

Think of it as painting with tiles, each tile is one piece of the picture. You can drag and drop these tiles onto the grid to make patterns, paths, or even secret rooms. It’s like creating a map for a treasure hunt!

You can also add things like enemies, coins, or doors, which tell the game what happens when you step on them.

Why Tiled is Cool

Tiled helps people who make games or puzzles to design their worlds quickly and easily, no need for complicated tools. It’s like having a magical drawing tool, but with real blocks you can move around!
