The Galaxy Editor is not out yet however it is still possible to start working on maps. I will show you different projects that have already been started by the Mapster community.
Mapster Tower Defense by Vjeux
The first real Custom Map of Starcraft II is a Tower Defense. If you haven’t played Warcraft III, this is a game where you build towers in order to kill waves of units that are coming to kill your main building. You have to make the best combinaison of towers and at the right spot to defeat them all.
Towers
- Nicoli_s Tower: A really slow tower that can be upgraded later.
- Sixen Tower: A medium tower that has a good DPS.
- Ckknight Tower: The ultimate tower. Pwn’s everyone in sight.
Waves
- Drone: Build fast, you need it!
- Zergling: Hopefully you survive this phase.
- ????: You need upgraded towers
- ????: Will you get there alive?
- ????: Defeat this wave and win the game!

Since Galaxy Editor is not out there yet, we worked on a Map Editor that allows you to start modding. It is in early development at the moment but already allows you to tweak the maps.
Features
- Editing Map Info and Player Info (race, position, color)

Coastal Tileset by Corbo
Not only coders are working on the maps, it is possible to work on new tilesets and even play with them on Battle.net! Just copy the files inside your Starcraft II folder and you are done.
