Meridian4 and Frozenbyte have announced that the "Shadowgrounds" level editor has been released.

The 2.6MB editor can be downloaded from the official site, 3dgamers, FileShack, VGPro, or Worthplaying.

"With the Level Editor, modders are able to create totally new missions, even story-based campaigns and distribute them to other gamers, who can easily enjoy the new content with the built-in support in Shadowgrounds Launcher utility.

A set of building blocks were created to help users create buildings fast and easy, instead of using the costly professional tools used in the making of the original Shadowgrounds game. With dedication it's also entirely possible to match Shadowgrounds' outdoor environment quality. Gamers can also use features such as environmental effects (rain, snow, sandstorm, and lightning), conversations between characters, computer screens/PDAs and much more."
