Description

Tiled is a free and open source, easy to use, and flexible level editor
link: https://www.mapeditor.org/

Gideros supports maps exported from Tiled with the .lua format (File -> Export As -> Lua files (*.lua)).

note: in your project, don't forget to exclude from execution your Tiled lua file (right click -> Exclude from Execution)

Here we will see examples of how to use Tiled for your games, using both Liquidfun and Bump as you would probably use one of them for your collision detection.

note2: as I became a big fan of ECS for building games, I am going to use tiny-ECS but you can completely ignore it as it has no impact on how to use Tiled in Gideros
