I wanted 3d, but more of an isometric, Powerstone type camera view

I couldn't care less.

I'd love to create some levels in 3d.

How is it even possible to even add 16 layers in a 2D game?

No. Most games are in 3D already so this game is welcome change from that.

means that its basically 16 planes stacked on each other, so the character can hop into the background 15 times for example

ot To me the additional layers effectively make it a 3d game althought i suppose the perspective is different though

That's what I can't picture. Do you know how deep those levels would have to be.

yeah but they gave an example of how its used practically in the trailer, which shows a tennis court with one player in the background, the other in the topmost layer and the court between them which is probably then comprised of multiple layers

so thats just one example and i'm sure when people get their hands on the tools they'll really go wild with what they create

does'nt make sense in the context of the gameplay in my humbled opinion.

Let's go deeper. I'd love a pixel art LBP.
