Tiled vs EasyRPG

Not everyone uses the same operating system and why should they? Tiled supports Windows, Mac, and Linux so you can work in any environment you like. Also with daily builds you get to stay ahead of the curve!

Using the GPL license means you get to use this software free and are free to make changes to it as you see fit.

Sometimes you need 20 layers to make something epic. Tiled lets you create as many layers as you need.

Setup shell commands within Tiled so you can setup workflows for each of your games.

Whether you want a straight on look at your world or a slightly skewed one Tiled has you covered.

Setup boarders with your tilesets so making tiles provide the correct connections automatically. This feature will speed up your level creation.

One of the coolest things is to create rules so you can automate the mapping process. Want to have certain tiles to always have a collider? Simply make a rule for it and it'll do it automatically. Speed up your mapping process with this feature.

A big list of engines already have support for Tiled provided by those in the community. See if the engine you use is already on the list.

Tiled makes it easy to setup triggers and colliders with its vector tools or you can set up a tile that’s invisible in your game. Change collider/trigger properties so you can access them within your game.

Want to import a giant object but don’t want to split it up? Import it and place it the exact size you want it as one object.

Create properties for your map, layers, tilesets, tiles, and objects. Have the flexibility you need to create the best levels for your game.

Tiled provides an easy solution for tile maps for any engine even the custom engine you are now making. This makes Tiled a very versatile tool for 2D games.
