Isometric Drawing Demo

Contents

Introduction

Isometric drawing is a form of 2D drawing that simulates a 3D view. Games like Final Fantasy Tactics Advance have used it. I've tried experimenting with the technique, and this demo uses the 2:1 diamond variant. Originally, I'd planned to create a full-fledged isometric game, but it was harder than I thought. So all I have this is this little demo of what I've learned. Basically, this demo just allow you to move a box sprite around a maze. In any case, I'm posting the program and source code here for posterity's sake. Hope you find it helpful.
