# 2.5D Demo Project with C#
|
|
|
|
This demo project shows a way to create a 2.5D game
|
|
in Godot by mixing 2D and 3D nodes. It also adds a
|
|
2.5D editor viewport for easily editing 2.5D levels.
|
|
|
|
Language: [C#](https://docs.godotengine.org/en/latest/tutorials/scripting/c_sharp/index.html) and a little bit of GDScript
|
|
|
|
Renderer: GLES 2
|
|
|
|
Note: There is a GDScript version available [here](https://github.com/godotengine/godot-demo-projects/tree/master/misc/2.5d).
|
|
|
|
## How does it work?
|
|
|
|
Custom node types are added in a Godot plugin to allow 2.5D objects. Node25D serves as the base for all 2.5D objects. Its first child must be a 3D Spatial, which is used to calculate its position. Then, add a 2D Sprite (or similar) to display the object.
|
|
|
|
Inside of Node25D, new structs called Basis25D and Transform25D are used to calculate the 2D position from the 3D position. For getting a 3D position, this project uses KinematicBody and StaticBody (3D), but these only exist for math - the camera is 2D and all sprites are 2D. You are able to use any Spatial node for math.
|
|
|
|
Several view modes are implemented, including top down, front side, 45 degree, isometric, and two oblique modes. To implement a different view angle, all you need to do is create a new Basis25D, use it in all your Node25D transforms, and of course create sprites to display that object in 2D.
|
|
|
|
The plugin also adds YSort25D to sort Node25D nodes, and ShadowMath25D for calculating a shadow (a simple KinematicBody that tries to cast downward).
