This is a very neat case study about improving level design tools and measuring the success of those improvements, by Emil Dobetsberger, in Godot.

Did you know that I made the first version of AssetPlacer for an academic thesis?
I just updated that version and released it as a free demo! Feel free to check it out, and also my thesis if you like!
AssetPlacer, my #Godot level design plugin is on sale this week, following the release of update 1.4.0!

#LevelDesign & #EnvironmentArt people: Do you use 3D prop libraries, also called "Asset Zoos"?
An asset zoo is a scene that contains each asset you need in an organized manner.
I added a feature to my #GodotEngine plugin, to automatically generate a zoo from an asset collection:
I want to get a quick look at my assets at any moment, so I've started experimenting with dynamic previews👀
