SDK

I need 2d editor (Windows) for game like rpg. Mostly important features for me:

Load tiles as classes with attributes, for example "tile1 with coordinates [25,30] is object of class FlyingMonster with speed=1.0f";
Export map to my own format (SDK) or open format which I can convert to my own;

As good extension feature will be multi-tile brush. I wanna to choose one or many tiles into one brush and spread it on canvas.
