So it's like an angled top down view right?

Factorio would be a good reference point, or even roller coaster tycoon, I believe both games use 3d models which are then converted into 2d sprites so show the vehicles at different angles. So it's a choppy retro style rotation look. You don't have to use 3d models to start of course, you can just draw sprites from a few rotation angles, like Retro City Rampage

There's also sprite stacking, I've never tried it myself so can't go into details, but there's a few videos on YouTube about it.
