2d in 3d but still 2d

BlitzPlus Forums/BlitzPlus Programming/2d in 3d but still 2d

been messing around with 2d and sprites and started doing a zelda style rpg engine using sprites but retaining the 2d graphics/view yet using 3d collisions.
Still early but here's some screenies

Looks pretty good. A bit empty though - are you going to put some random scenery on the ground, like rocks and stuff?

it's only very early, i was just doing trees and different layers with collisions. It will have more scenery cos it does look sparse. That red thing he's standing behind is a 3d cube, just doesn't look it in the screen :)

ps it's all done in 3d, i haven't done any 2d for ages and thought i'd use 3d but still retain the 2d game in 3d.

I thought it was the roof of a house!

Pretty kewl

Nice one mate!
