What Tile Modeler does

A 3D level usually starts with weeks of learning a modelling program. The Tile Modeler works like a tilemap editor in three dimensions instead: you draw the 2D tiles you already have onto any plane, stack blocks, drag corners into slopes and roofs, and add sprites that turn to the camera for trees and characters.

Use it to give a 2D game a 3D look, to build a PSX-style level, or to make props for a 3D game out of a tileset. Several tilesets can go into one model and the pixels stay crisp. Models leave as GLB, glTF or OBJ for Godot, Unity, Unreal or Blender, with a PNG render one click away.

How it works

Open the starter tileset or drop in your own PNG and set its tile size.
Hover a face and draw tiles onto it; stack blocks to build walls and floors.
Drag vertices to make slopes and roofs; add billboard sprites for trees.
Export GLB, glTF or OBJ and drop the model into your engine.
