Hello everyone!
Today is a historic day in Gem Wizards Tactics history: the game officially has a MAP EDITOR!
You can now create, save, and load Gem Wizards Tactics maps, with whatever units, terrain or other stuff you might want to put in there. It also has some other cool features which might help you do whatever you're looking to do:
- Turn on/off randomized combat (may be useful for, say, a puzzle map)
- Turn on/off fog of war
- Change the number of flags required to win
- Add a MISSION TIMER - you need to win before X turns, or you lose.
You can save your map to a .MAP file also so you can share it with friends!
This should be a really fun thing to play with. It hasn't gotten a ton of testing yet, but it definitely works. Looking forward to hearing what you think, and what you'd like to see in the map editor. Send us your creations!
I should give credit and mention that this map editor was created by Brett Lowey of BrainGoodGames - amazing work Brett!
If you missed it, we also got controller support in the last month, so make sure to check that out too!
Thanks everyone. And there is actually a LOT more cool, exciting stuff on the way for this game, so stay tuned!
