World Editor & Modding
A versatile world editor lets players edit the existing story or build entirely new ones, adding fresh skills, scripts, and imported assets. This tool supports full creative control over narrative flow.
Modders may sell their creations on any site, keeping all profit, provided they link to the Brigand store page and exclude the EXE files from the download.
- Start with minor script edits to learn the editor before tackling full story rewrites.
- Reference existing assets when importing new ones to maintain visual consistency.
