A map-making tool for fantasy RPG games

Dungeondraft is a map-making tool for fantasy role-playing games (RPG). The app enables users with little or no skill in graphic design to create detailed level maps for top-down games. The application uses intuitive tools that can be used to create professional-looking level art.

The type of level design that Dungeondraft uses creates maps in a 2D top-down style similar to that seen in games like Stardew Valley and Horizon’s Gate. However, the app supports a wide variety of art styles through third-party game assets.

Create professional-looking RPG maps

Dungeondraft aims to make it easy to create professional-looking maps for RPG games — and any other type of game that uses a top-down art style. Using the intuitive tools provided by the app, players can draw things like paths with a single stroke. The app will also fill in the details, such as path texture and edges.

Support for third-party assets

The app supports game assets from third-party sources, meaning users can search for game assets (free and premium) that suit their project or just make their own assets and import them. Dungeondraft has become quite popular, so there are lots of resources available for those looking to find game assets for their projects.

A powerful tool but limited without third-party assets

Dungeondraft is a powerful and intuitive tool for creating top-down game maps, featuring many helpful systems like built-in lighting and smart object placement. It is somewhat limited without the use of third-party game assets, though, so users will have to plan around the sourcing of those assets.
