Create isometric projection/2.5D game

Hi,

I’ve an idea for create an isometric view game, that intent to be similar to Kingdom Rush, I have some experience on create games but only action games, I intent to use Corona SDK on this but I’m not have found many resources/tutorial to start to create my tile map.

 

Can you support me with some tutorials and tips where to start work on my game? It’s a good idea doing this on corona SDK?

 

That is a sample what i want on my view :

We did a game for the ludum dare game jam that was orthogonal like the image above. The biggest issue was sorting layers for z-order so a player could walk in-front of or behind the same object depending on the relative y coordinate.

Maps were built using Tiled
