## What it is
Sony's standalone WYSIWYG level editor for designing game levels, maps, and virtual worlds, built on the Authoring Tools Framework with C# UI and DirectX 11 C++ rendering. It supports terrain creation, object placement, property editing, and extensibility via plug-ins.

## Use cases
- design game levels and maps with a wysiwyg editor
- place and arrange 3d objects in a game world
- edit terrain for a video game
- create a game world for any game engine

## When to choose
- you need a free standalone level editor on Windows with DirectX 11 rendering

- you design game worlds with terrain, static objects, and lighting

## When to avoid
- you need an actively maintained tool (last release 2017)
- you are not on Windows with DirectX 10+ hardware
- you need engine-specific level tooling with modern pipelines
