Sharing Your Level Packs

Once you’ve created an amazing dungeon experience, you can share it with other players! The Level Editor provides several ways to distribute your custom level packs.

Export Your Level Pack

Eport

To export and share your level pack:

  1. Open your level pack in the editor
  2. Click the Export button (the third icon in the top toolbar)
  3. Choose where to save your exported level pack file
  4. The editor will create a .etdm file containing all your levels, monsters, items, and settings

Sharing Methods

Share

You can share your level pack using:

  • Email: Send the .etdm file directly to friends
  • Local or iCloud Storage: Save to Files app for later access
  • AirDrop: Share directly to nearby devices

Opening Shared Level Packs

When someone receives your .etdm file:

Play

  1. Tap or open the .etdm file on their iOS/Mac device
  2. The file uses Apple’s URL scheme mechanism to automatically launch “The Dungeon - Get Out”
  3. The game will automatically import the level pack
  4. The imported levels will be ready to play immediately
  5. When you start a new game, you can select the new level pack

Players can also save the .etdm file and import it later by opening it whenever they’re ready.

JSON Export (Advanced)

For advanced users who want to edit level packs programmatically:

  1. Export your level pack as usual (creates a .etdm file)
  2. Rename the file extension from .etdm to .json
  3. Edit the JSON file with your favorite code editor
  4. Make your changes following the JSON structure
  5. Rename back to .etdm to use in the game

For details on the JSON structure and available fields, see the JSON Export documentation.
