    [​IMG]Grid Cartographer, the program that allows you to make maps to go along with your RPG games, now has a new Android version for mobile users.

    Grid Cartographer Touch is a map making tool for role-playing games.

    The perfect companion for classic RPGs like Wizardry, Might & Magic, Eye of the Beholder, Captive, Lands of Lore and Dungeon Master.

    Feature Packed!
    Grid Cartographer Touch improves upon paper maps with a number of useful features such as unlimited map area and floors stored in one convenient file, undo / redo, clipboard functions, support for custom tiles and a notes feature.

    The advanced editing features such as the quick move tool and area stroke and fill make blocking out maps incredibly easy. Then detail using the many icons included (or import your own) and simply export the map to an image file for printing or sharing online!

    Traditional Role Playing?
    It's a great tool for traditional pen and paper role playing games. Dungeon Masters can make maps with it to be revealed to the party at key moments, or the party could use it themselves as a tool for mapping out a dungeon as they explore. You could even role-play an actual cartographer!

    Game Developer?
    Grid Cartographer Touch supports exporting maps as XML or Binary data. It's fully documented in an easy to read reference manual. Check out this Flash demo game (with full source code) for a real-world example of using an exported map. All files are fully compatible between desktop and mobile versions.​
