The best playable
map generator
there is.

Three ways to start

Pick the one that matches what you have in mind.

A photo goes in. A game map comes out.

We dropped a picture of the Colosseum into RPGJS Studio. No description, no tilesets, no setup.

The generator reads the composition, the subjects and the mood of the picture, then redraws it as a top-down map in the style you chose. It inspires the map, it does not copy it.

Real maps, real prompts

Generated in RPGJS Studio with a single sentence. Each one is a full 40×30 map, not a picture.

Draw it. The AI paints it.

Sketch the layout of your map: roads, water, buildings. A few strokes are enough. The generator places everything where you drew it, then paints a real map in the style you picked. It uses your drawing as a layout guide, not as a picture to colour in.

A pen, an eraser, eight colours and a sheet in the ratio of your map. Read how the drawing pad works →

Stylistic control

Same prompt, different style. You choose the visual direction before generating, and the tilesets, terrains and decor follow it.

Not a picture. Not a grid of blocks.

A generated map is cut into the same parts you would build by hand. Open it in the map editor and change anything.

1. 1

   Every object, cut out

   The generator does not paint one flat image. Tables, shelves, trees and lamps are separate elements: 122 in this library. Drag any of them from the panel to place it again.

2. 2

   Select, move, resize, delete

   Click any object on the map to move it, resize it or remove it. Nothing is locked into the picture.

3. 3

   Elements, Terrain, Events

   Switch tabs to repaint the ground or to add NPCs, doors and quests on top of the map.

4. 4

   Tools to arrange the map

   Selection, Hand, Brush and Organic tools to place and rearrange elements by hand.

5. 5

   Layers

   Always below, below characters or always above: decide what the player walks over and behind.

6. 6

   Test in the browser

   Press Test and walk through the map you just generated, then save or export your game.

Terrain you can repaint

Floors, carpets, paths, grass and water are real terrains, not decoration. Switch to the Terrain tab and use the brush, fill, wall, hole and eraser to reshape the ground. Water uses terrain morphology, so its edges stay clean as you edit. Generated walls are the exception: they are not editable terrains yet.

Collisions that follow the shape

Each element has a polygon hitbox you can reshape. A palm tree blocks the player at its trunk, not across its whole canvas. Turn on the Hitboxes view to see where the player can and cannot walk.

• Events

  Add NPCs, doors, chests and quests on top of the generated map.

• Test

  Press Test and walk through the map in your browser.

• Duplicate

  Copy a map in one click to try a variation without touching the original.

• Export

  Export the game and its RPGJS source when you are ready.

How the generator evolved

1. v1

   One image, with hitboxes

   A single picture with collisions on top. Playable, but impossible to edit.

2. v2

   Real map content

   Terrain tiles and movable elements you can edit, but elements were not always placed well.

3. v3

   Better placement and layers

   A big improvement in where elements go and how layers are stacked, plus styles and generated water. Out of alpha.
