Hi all,

Im gathering knowledge on game mechanic, the reason i picked up agk2 is to make 2d game becos it look fun. But i try to get some info on how 2.5d work like in Brawler game(Final Fight,Street of Rage etc) and also some topdown 3/4 view especially on collision part with no luck and all lead to advice using 3d instead. Pure sideview i think i already get the concept.Somebody can direct me to right path?

Thanks

The first technique is parallax scrolling. Basically scrolling different layers of a 2D scene at different speeds. Read more here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parallax_scrolling

The second is called isometric graphics - and was very popular back in the day of 8bit computers. If they could do it, AppGameKit certainly can Essentially it is doing neat trickery with sprites and layers with sprinkling of simple math for good measure.
