DevLog #1 - Hexagonal Constructor is released!


Hexagonal Constructor is now available on itch.io!

This tool started as an interesting personal experiment and a sudden cool idea.
Now it has grown into a small, lightweight hex-grid generator that I use in my own Unity projects, and I’m releasing it publicly for anyone who needs hex-based layouts.

                                                                                                

What's inside? (v1.0)

< Randomized Generator >

A fully procedural layout system. Supports:

  • rooms count

  • seed mode (deterministic)

  • random walk mode

< Shape-Based Generation >
  • Disk

  • Ring

  • TwoDifferentDisks+Corridor (experimental)

< Editor Tools >
  • Live gizmo preview

  • Cached fast preview

  • Build/clear buttons

  • Step-by-step debug mode (Play Mode)

< FlatTop & PointyTop hex support >

All math is axial + cube-rounding under the hood.

                                                                                                

Why I built it?

I love procedural systems, especially randomized/pseudo-randomized ones, and math.
I've been thinking for a long time that procedural hexagonal generation is much less common than the usual square ones, but looks much more interesting and harder in implementation. So I was really interested to implement it by myself.
Building maps/dungeons manually can be painful, so this generator solves the problem fast and stays readable and lightweight.

                                                                                                

Future Plans

  • More shapes
  • More randomized modes
  • Cleaner shape editor
  • Some performance improvements for future ideas

I'm taking ideas - feel free to leave feedback or suggestions.

                                                                                                

Thanks for checking out Hexagonal Constructor!

If you buy the asset or leave feedback - you're helping me support future tools and experiments.
