A DigiPen Institute of Technology student is developing Perspective - a revolutionary video game that combines 3D and 2D platforms.
Perspective takes what would otherwise be a fairly typical 2D platformer and once again shoves it into a 3D world. This one isn’t confined to the four faces of a cube though, instead, the player is given control of the camera from a first person perspective. While doing this, the screen 2D character is locked in place and once the perspective has been shifted, they can then be unlocked and travel across the world. It’s basically like walking through a 3D level but having to bring a little 2D person with you, sort of.Now I know you didn't get any of that, so better watch the trailer:
