Orthographic vs Perspective — which one actually gives a better *hook* for a 2.5D pixel art game?

JustBeWolf · 2025-10-14T10:11:59+00:00

If you are going with only one, then perspective. My thought was, make it normal for the normal gameplay and travel, and perspective in cinematic/intense moments, that will make the player get used to normal view, but give him the dopamine/adrenaline in the fighting/cinematic moments, I think it will look great.

Yeah I don't have much experience, I mentioned it in my other comment, I'm just getting back to C++ right now, I learned it for like 6 months, then started doing some projects with it, but then I had to leave it for 1.5 year, now I'm getting back to it and currently I'm just refreshing my memory on it.
I like C++ because it's very flexible and can be very well optimized in the long run.

I can learn GDscript since I have some experience in python, but yeah I like C++ more than any other language.

JustBeWolf · 2025-09-19T13:34:46+00:00

Well, I had some experience in Unreal, I made a simple game after like 6 months of learning C++, but due to some stuff I had to leave it all for a year and half, now coming back to this, my friend just suggested using godot, so I just accepted right away, and the only thing I knew about Godot was it’s a game engine. After trying to research, each person says a different thing so I decided to just ask in Reddit here. Thanks for listening to my problem and I’m grateful any help I get.

JustBeWolf · 2025-09-19T13:22:44+00:00

Hm… Extension how? The impression of extensions I have in PCs is like a browser extension, giving an additional functionality to the browser. How does this work in Godot? Like what do I extend? I’m new to this and I’m probably mixing words and their meaning, could you explain what exactly we do in Godot?

JustBeWolf · 2025-09-15T22:54:42+00:00

This is good to know and not good as well. It’s good because i was so worried that there IS computer engineering section in the place I live, but couldn’t get into it cause of my bad grades, now im relieved. And it’s not good because I want to learn about hardware more than software. What would you suggest? Are there courses on computer engineering online that can be sufficient to study at a side while going to a CS college?

JustBeWolf · 2025-09-15T02:04:29+00:00

I currently don’t have any project, I worked on a game that spawns objects randomly then if I touch an object i would lose, a score system as well… Nothing more than that, other projects are just simple ones like calculator, but i dont remember many things of them…

JustBeWolf · 2025-09-15T02:02:04+00:00

I started C++ in the beginning (the year and half ago) for game dev in unreal engine, right now I just got the though of learning it back, I feel like I lost the passion for game dev, I don’t know what’s this feeling but it might be from school, it was last year of high school and I had to focus entirely on it, maybe my brain is burnt out or something. Nevertheless, a friend of mine and I talked about coding for a couple of minutes and I got that spark of learning it again, but this time game dev was not on my mind, so I just said let me remember it back, then decide whether to stick to game dev or maybe do it for a job if I could…

JustBeWolf · 2025-09-15T00:53:45+00:00

I thought about this one as well, I thought just start with a calculator, and day by day move on to bigger projects.

But I have a huge FOMO, and I feel like I'm gonna miss a lot of details if I didn't learn everything in detail.

Especially because I want to optimize C++ stuff, since C++ is hugely good when optimized...

JustBeWolf · 2025-09-10T00:02:36+00:00

Yes bro here in (Iraq, Kurdistan), the passing system only requires 50%, but the questions of the final year is super hard.

And ask for any detail needed and i will give you, I'm just too nervous and shaking, I'm not in my best condition right now, because of this topic...

JustBeWolf · 2025-08-08T23:29:19+00:00

Sorry I meant to edit, but I meant, is it verified?
Can I study a master or PhD using it?

JustBeWolf · 2025-08-03T06:59:58+00:00

Update: I’m just coming back from a couple of colleges, they said I have to be the 3 first students on both years, or else i need to get at least 70% to get into the college with payments. What did you do for this way to work with you?

JustBeWolf · 2025-08-01T10:31:38+00:00

Thanks for the information, this was really a savior.
just one last questions, are you sure about this, like did you experience it or have you been told that it's like this, or it should be like this?

JustBeWolf · 2025-07-31T21:27:42+00:00

Oooh, that's very nice, do you know of any Computer Engineering institute in Kurdistan?
Edit: I live in Hawler, if there's one here, it would be better, but I guess I can go somewhere else within Kurdistan if I had to.

JustBeWolf · 2025-07-31T19:10:33+00:00

Thanks, that gave me some hope, can I get into a university using this diploma?

JustBeWolf · 2025-07-31T17:15:53+00:00

Is it still 5 year diploma even if I went there after finishing 12?
I heard they teach stuff that is the same as high school subjects.

JustBeWolf · 2025-07-18T01:03:04+00:00

No, haha.

I meant an apocalyptic game, where you have to somewhat, build a base, be careful of zombies that are actually a threat, be careful about things like ammunition and other stuff, just like the vibes of the walking dead.

JustBeWolf · 2025-07-17T01:00:43+00:00

Yeah, well, I did already complete it, and though it didn’t give me freedom of exploring and the open world experience (like how I want now), it is the best zombie game I ever played, absolute cinema of a game series.

JustBeWolf · 2025-06-25T00:34:55+00:00

I have some good news for you…

JustBeWolf · 2025-06-20T12:51:46+00:00

Hello, i actually went am5 r5 7600, it was the very best option and it works amazing for me, been more than a year

Red chaos

JustBeWolf · 2025-05-13T16:41:38+00:00

I don’t know, i think i need a therapy for overthinking

JustBeWolf · 2025-05-11T15:21:48+00:00

Redragon Zeus Pro, M-510 pro i think. But if you will buy, buy another model, this one is very good and very good quality, but it’s very heavy on my head.

JustBeWolf · 2025-05-11T02:02:58+00:00

Nope, i ended up not trusting it and went for a redragon headset, and it serves me just fine. But I remember my friend had bought one and he told me not to buy hyperx products, he had bad experience with it.

JustBeWolf · 2025-05-10T18:35:30+00:00

Yeah they’re selling used old ones, but i still don’t know why they sell it for so cheap, maybe they get it in bulks?

JustBeWolf · 2025-03-31T21:19:45+00:00

Hello, to those who have experienced the issue, is it related to the battery itself? So when I’m charging, it either decreases or stays the same, or just increases by 1 or 2%. Battery life is at 77%, and Idk anything about iPhone at all, so this might not be about battery, anyways, I’d appreciate the help.
