Delete. Couldn't find anything but download links. ~ A412 ^talk! 18:02, 20 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Comment A cursory search found a Softpedia review and some coverage in a game programming book, not sure if there's more out there but I wouldn't be surpised. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 18:08, 20 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
While I think Softpedia is generally fine as a source, I'm not convinced by the editorial independence of the review when next to a hosted download link. ~ A412 ^talk! 19:50, 20 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Merge to Tile-based video game. Sources mention it, so even if it's not standalone notable, a section for the development of tile-based games can be made that mentions this program and others. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 12:48, 21 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Merge to Tile-based video game per ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Passworddictionary (talk • contribs) 06:51, 28 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. The article mainly relies on its website. No significant coverage from reliable sources could be found. I have done a quick Google search and much of what is found are tutorials, YouTube links, and other info that fails to cover the subject in depth. For now, will go with delete. _ Tumbuka Arch (talk) 14:21, 3 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - I agree with A412 that Softpedia isn't really great in this context and overall the mentions to me don't seem to justify anything more than a name-drop in Tile-based video game, especially as AFAIK this hasn't been used to develop any notable titles. ― novov (t c) 06:00, 7 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
