What I mean is that in most 2.5D games, the 3D is just a graphical style; everything you have to worry about is on a 2D plane. But in Tropical Freeze, obstacles come out of the background and into the "field of play," so to speak. And in a lot of cases, mostly cannon sections so far, the plane of movement itself gets shifted. It's really cool. The one thing I can think of that worked similarly is the Banzai Bills in Super Mario Maker 2's 3D World style, but that's just one enemy rather than a recurring design ethos. --- Have you tried thinking rationally? <cite>Intro2Logic posted [p:932165996] in Tropical F...

Doe 12/28/19 4:51:45 PM #3:	3D World actually does have a recurring 2.5 theme. The lava monster and Meowser have the same mechanic and I believe some obstacles do as well. --- https://i.imgtc.ws/sQvRQV7.jpg https://imgtc.ws/i/lT4IPDD.png <cite>Doe posted [p:932166157] in Tropical F...
