What is the best way to make new levels?

So the code to my game is done , but i need to make a whole bunch of levels. Is there some sort of drag and drop option out there? because creating levels programmatically is kinda a pain. Any suggestions?

Composer GUI is available in the Pro build, and that’s a drag-drop editor – as long as you’re using Composer for levels.

Or, create a simple level editor for your own game. Since it’s for your own use it doesn’t have to have all the bells and whistles. I’ve created simple editors for Froggy Went A Hoppin, Roly-Polies, and I. O. Silver – basically every game I’ve done that uses levels has an editor built-in. :slight_smile:

Here’s how easily you can make something:

Hope that helps.
