The world

The whole map, in 3D

Every tile of your WorldBox map stands as land you can walk, from the shore to the far mountains.

Press V on the map

Flat map, or the whole world in 3D

The 3D god view draws your map as the world it is, under the game's own buttons and powers. Drag across the picture: the same village at the same zoom, both straight from the game.

A snowy village in the 3D god view: stone and timber houses, a fountain and snowy pines on a point by the sea. — Map zoom 26, the same moment. The 3D view fades in below zoom 60 and covers the map from 40 (both set in the F2 menu).

Graphics settings

Pick your look

The same street at the same moment in each of the looks you can pick in F2, straight from the game. The picture's size runs from 640×360 to 1920×1080, and the Low preset keeps older and laptop graphics smooth.

Day and night

Day, sunset, after dark

The sun crosses the sky over a 20-minute day. Lived-in houses light their windows at night, fires and lava light everything near them, and the northern lights, comets and meteor showers come out over the sea. F7 holds the hour you like.

Stone houses with blue slate roofs under big trees in a village, in daylight.

The same houses at dusk, warm light on the walls under a violet sky.

The same houses at night, their windows lit and fireflies over the grass.

All the way to the far shore

See 270 tiles out, or the whole map (Draw distance in the F2 menu). Far mountains turn blue in the haze and the low sun lays a road of light across the sea.

Looking out from a beach at golden hour: the low sun over a calm sea, a glittering road of light running in over the clear shallows, and a jungle shore curving away on the right. — A beach at golden hour, the low sun laying a road of light across the sea.

Wonders, rebuilt

The game's waypoints, spawners, brains and mage towers stand in 3D at one and a half times their sprite's height, with light, motion and their own sounds.
