Hi all,
I’ve been looking into Corona as my next tool of choice for prototyping a game I have in mind. The art style I’m heading towards is isometric but it would appear isometric support within Corona is fairly lacking.
Current resources:
https://github.com/anthonygore/Isometric-Tiled-Map-Loader
Super simple no frills Tiled isometric map loader.
It got me a working map but the lack of of virtually any other features makes this little more than a piece of code to review.
https://github.com/ponywolf/ponytiled and https://github.com/GymbylCoding/Dusk-Engine
No isometric support but both have a better feature set when it comes to orthogonal maps generated using Tiled.
So, to the question; has anyone found any resources for creating and subsequently integrating isometric maps into Corona SDK? I don’t want to re-invent the wheel and I’m not sure if the benefits of Corona will outweigh the effort required to add the level of isometric mapping support I’m looking for.
Thanks!
