Godot Tutorial -- Creating 2D levels using Tilemaps
272In this tutorial we look at using tilemaps to create 2D levels. We start off by importing the tiles from a 2D spritesheet, then define physics and collision properties for each tile, then export them as a tileset. We then use the tileset to paint a typical level and show how a game sprite would interact with it's physics.
