I'm looking for a plugin or something that allows me to "paint" on tiles to a layout. i tried using the snap to grid feature, but it's so confusing because i can't actually SEE the grid. I want something like stencyl has, where you just click and drag and BOOM, you have a level. It's really hard to make a good platformer when everything is uneven, so please help!

If you turn on snap to grid and show grid, you can see where the objects will snap to.
