Yes I am aware the left is not an orthogonal projection. They call it "oblique" and "military" particularly. The right is almost isometric. Currently the most probable scheme is really "both" as cero "suggested". Visual appearance of the right one and "physical" part of the left one. It's surprising...

True. It produces an easier-to-see playfield. But my visual perception more likes the right projection. The left one looks like a bit weird to me. Actually that's the problem to decide on: left one: better playfield + worse appearance vs. right one: worse playfield + better appearance The left one h...

RTS.

However would be nice to know any opinions (disregard the genre).

Please help decide on projection

The simplest way to have obstacle bit-map. 0 for free space and 1 for obstacle. Shift position coordinates of sprite for example >>3 or >>4 (depending on what background cell size you have) and get cell of the obstacle map. Something more "clever" will be more context-dependent. If you would like to...

Please wait a bit. You will see games. Please don't lose your hope.
At least one game soon and that game will impress you! 100%
Sega Mega Drive has never seen such things.
Just there is a lot of things related to the surviving takes a lot of time that should be devoted to the games.

As ryanfaescotland said easy68k quite good for you purpose.
And of course don't forget about Motorola 68000 manual.

Thanks Nemesis! Very interesting.

I meant the disabled screen but disabled in such a magic way that it doesn't harm anything (:

Big thanks to him !

I can make CRT test as well if it does matter.

"move along there is nothing to see here"

they are quite cheap now.
you could try to buy one from krikzz for example.

nothing special happens even if you change the mode each "clock".
just incorrect work. actually nothing could happen.

To Sik:

How many colors (without visible artifacts and destroying consequences) can you transfer in hblank?

I turn the screen on/off in the horizontal blank. It breaks VDP's graphics "preparation".
It seems the tile positions and their relations don't have anything special.
