Level editor for Ultimate Tapan Kaikki (TK321)

Note: Project has been "donated" to Suomipelit organization and work continues in https://github.com/suomipelit/utk-level-editor which from now on serves as the main repository.

Pretty much feature complete level editor written in Rust for Ultimate Tapan Kaikki (TK321) DOS game classic. See also opensourced game itself.

Editor is heavily based on original DOS era editor but does not aim to be a carbon copy. Hopefully most of the differences can be considered as improvements.

Implementation is done using SDL2.
