General discussions / Create a 2.5D game like Wizardry/Bard's Tale
« on: August 17, 2019, 12:07:02 am »
I noticed that most of the RPG/Dungeon Crawler games that are made using SFML are top-down and was wondering if something with the 2.5D perspective can be done with "out of the box" SFML (i.e. like screencap below)? I was going to try and mimic one of those old school type games just to play around on my own since I enjoyed playing them years ago and thought it would be fun to make my own.
I just want to be able to make the screens, display the map as I walk, display characters, etc and maybe eventually add other logic to play the game
I am not looking to get into the OpenGL complexity at this time and want to keep it simple
Just a question as to whether or not this is possible with SFML and if anyone knew of any examples that are out there? I did some searching, but did not find any other than top-down perspective.
Thanks,
