In June I wrote: https://twitter.com/redblobgames/status/1011769369934741504 … Did it work? Yes, it worked well! I was able to *focus* on #mapgen4 and finish it.
This project took 5.5 months of 2017 (Jun-Nov) and 4.5 months of 2018 (Jul-Nov). I'm really happy with the way it turned out!
I'm ready for something new.

I've partially added a requested feature: a download button. I've only gotten it working on Chrome/desktop (where it was unneeded, since you can right click to save), Safari/desktop, Safari/ios. Haven't gotten it working on Chrome/android, Firefox/desktop, Firefox/android.

Really nice! Even on mobile

Thanks! I spent a lot of time working on performance. I wanted it to work reasonably well on ~4 year old iPhones and ~1 year old Android phones. It's especially fun on a tablet!

I have to say, this is really cool. As someone who does game design in their free time and does high performance computing during the day, it's going to be hard not to dive into the source code and get distracted.

Thanks!! Code is messy; main optimization was by reusing data across frames: voronoi/delaunay mesh, sorted array of cells for wind calculation (only update w/wind slider), river shapes inside triangles, mountain placement and slope (only update w/jaggedness slider)

This is the best map tool I've seen! I'm unclear on the saving though, it just saves as an all black png for me when I use the context menu.

Oh hm! Which browser/OS? I want to put in a proper Save button but didn't get it working in time.

Is there a position on using artwork _generated_ by this for things like games and commercial indie products?
-
I think of it as a tool like a paintbrush or text editor — everything you make with it is YOURS. Credit is appreciated but not required. I'm planning to release the code too so that you could also use the generator in your own projects. (Apache v2 license allows commercial use)
