What is Tilemap Studio?
Tilemap Studio is a tilemap editor specifically designed for developing games on classic consoles like Game Boy, GBC, GBA, NDS, SNES, Genesis, and TG16. It solves the problem of editing tile-based graphics for retro game projects, particularly those based on Pokémon disassemblies and fan-made hacks. The tool provides specialized format support and editing features tailored to the constraints of these older gaming systems.
ROM hackers, homebrew developers, and modders working on retro game projects, especially those focused on Pokémon games or other tile-based console games. It's also useful for developers contributing to pret disassemblies or creating their own fan games.
Developers choose Tilemap Studio for its dedicated support for Pokémon game formats and retro console tilemaps, which aren't well-handled by generic graphics editors. Its compatibility with community projects and intuitive editing tools make it the go-to solution for this niche development area.
