I started by drawing the geography of the world, then I made an array containing the information of the towns and the X and Y coordinates to draw their sprites on...

    Can you make a world tile map from a single image and still use proper pixel collision?

    I have read and watched a lot on this topic, rebuilt the map and navigation system twice, and just want to know if the following is possible. I have a large water and land map designed in GIMP and would like to use it as the full backdrop. The game has minimal objects at this level, so I'm...

    World Map working, but clunky and slow; how can I speed this up?

    I've been googling for days and all I can find are minimaps and old mario style warp maps which isn't really what I need. I'm trying to create a dynamic map for my metroidvania. The best example of what I mean would be the world map in Ori and the Blind Forest: Anyone know of a good tutorial?
