Save Game Levels into Jpeg Image

Many games have Level Editor it’s cool, but for publish level data game using Paste Code – it’s Map Matrix or Element list with coordinates, etc

When many users post this data to game comments it’s bad because you can’t see Level preview, i mean you don’t see what inside code.

I create AS3 Classes for load/read any level data from Jpeg Exif Comments Data,
Example:

Hosted on Imageshack

This image contain “Hello World”

AS3 Demo Code

Load method:

var data:ByteArray;
var levelText:String = "";
var reader:ExifReader = new ExifReader();
levelText = reader.readLevelData(data);

Save method:

var bmp:Bitmap;
var levelText:String = "Some Data";
var jp:JPEGEncoder = new JPEGEncoder(100);
var ba:ByteArray = jp.encode(bmp.bitmapData, levelText);
