A practical example
Block out a route across a small map
Use a concrete input, inspect the output, and check the current limits before choosing your next step.
Example input
Start with the built-in 16 × 12 grid. Choose grass, water, path, tree, rock, or flower from the tile palette.
What to check
- Paint a water edge on the left, then draw a path from one side of the grid to the other.
- Place trees or rocks beside the route and leave enough space to show where the player should travel.
- Export the PNG and compare the route with the gameplay layout you need.
Expected output
The free canvas exports a 384 × 288 PNG: 16 × 12 cells with 24 pixels per cell.
Current limits
This canvas exports a flat image, not collision, object layers, Tiled map data, or engine scene files. Custom tiles and persistent multi-map projects are not provided by this free canvas.
