How can we design levels in PhotoShop
Author
Hey how can my brother design/export levels in photoshop for XNA? Then also how could I program the level such as colliders for the ground and other mechanincs for the level?
One way could be to create a image with the size of your map. and each pixel corresponds to a tile.
and from there you in code chek each color and set a specific tile in the game. so that a green color could be grass, and red could be lava.
You can break this down in more stuff, like a colision image aswell, setting 0,0,0 (black) = no collision, and any thing else is collision.
this thread explains pretty good stuff :
