I like it. I like it a lot. Only problem I'm noticing is that the Maker is somewhat prone to crashes, as I've gotten a few, and the Runtime program seems to get real choppy about every 30 seconds or so.
Also, I'd like to see an option to define the player starting spot sometime, but hey, this is only the first public beta.
Edit: I also have a small feature request... You see, usually, a chipset has one tile on it that is completely filled with the transparency color, used for deleting things on the upper layer. Numbering the tiles across and down, starting at one, it's tile 19,9 (19 across, 9 down). Now, what I was thinking, is maybe when a chipset is chosen for making a new map, the maker would check that tile to see what color it is, and apply that as the color for upper layer transparency. I'm asking this because, as it is, it's somewhat difficult to perfectly match that pinkish color when using various editting programs, and also many of the chipsets that can be found online use a completely different color. Basically, it would just make things easier for the user.
Edit2: Oh, and trying to place a tile on either the right edge or bottom edge results in a crash.
