I was cruising around G+ the other day when I came upon a post linking to Inkarnate. I thought it looked cool and investigated further.
Inkarnate lets you make maps. It’s a simple interface and tailored for roleplaying games, but I was clapping and squealing in delight. I’ve looked into making maps before. They have installable programs like Campaign Cartographer, but I didn’t want to take the time to do the install and then learn the software. There are tutorials for making maps using graphics software, which I already have installed and know how to use, but I’m not so good at drawing slopes and ridges.
Inkarnate is a web-based and easy to use. I spent about a half hour on my map.
Since Inkarnate is simple, I couldn’t portray my world exactly as I envisioned it. Halqua is actually raised compared to the other provinces with waterfalls flowing over the edges, and Lumenor is a giant ring-shaped canyon with sandstone red walls. But still, Inkarnate is pretty darn cool and quick to learn.
What do you think of my map?
Do you like maps? Do you have a map for your world? Do you have any experience making maps? What do you use?
