So you have an hour left before you're game, and you forgot to create a map for your player's to explore! Or perhaps you find yourself needing a map mid-game and you need a map STAT -- you don't have time for something real fancy, and just need to throw something together during a short interlude.
DunGen is our answer to your needs, providing you with a simple and intuitive drag-and-drop map building experience on the web. With tilesets provided by Skeleton Key Games and easy tile controls, build out a map quickly and easily. Once you're done, render the tiles into a single image that you can use however you like. Import it into your favorite game management app, print it out, or order a high resolution version printed on neoprene or vinyl*.

Once the app is running locally (or if you just visit our site!), simply login and click Map Builder! Open up the tileset "drawer" on the right and start dragging tiles onto the grid. Double click a tile to rotate, mirror, or delete the tile. The map is saved in your browser so if you refresh the page you won't lose your hard work. Click the save button to permanently save the map to the database. Your saved maps can be found on the Saved Map page (your "dashboard") where you can open the map for editing, view the rendered map, or delete it.
Please get in touch with one of us before pushing any code. You are of course welcome to fork a copy and do what you like with your copy!
