Is FNaF a 2D game? (if you hate Fnaf, then please dont respond)
I see so many 3D fangames, but The canon fnaf series looks 2D. (is it 2D?) I would like to know, because i have tried (and failed) to model things in 3D, but i just cant do it. SO... I wanted to know if it would be acceptable to make a 2D (but not Cruddy) Fangame :/




if you have any tips then, PLEASE tell me!
I guess.....:steamfacepalm:

2D.
It's just a collection of gifs and rendered images you can interact with.

Just making sure, have you posted this in any (or all, there's no shortage) of the FNAF forums? You would be able to avoid 'people who hate FNAF' more easily so that you don't need that bit in your title and would probably get generally better, more relevant replies too. I would consider FNAF 2D or if we're really pushing it 2.5D.

Actually, 2.5D is basically 2D gameplay in a 3D environment.
Like, in Kirby 64:
It looks like it's 3D, with all the twists and turns in the level, but no matter how you go around it, you're still basically playing one one single plane, and that plane itself turns through the background, foreground, in circles, etc.

I get where you were going there with the "3D or 2D ...... 2.5D" thing though.

I'd say Coda got it right

Basically it's an interactive slideshow - All the models and backgrounds are put together into images, and those are what you see in-game.

And OP, if you're confused by what I or Coda meant, I found that The Spriters Resource actually has all these "pictures" ripped from the game and compiled into one file on the site.[www.spriters-resource.com]
BTW, this is FNAF 1 I'm talking about, but idk if 2 and onwards share this style - I believe they do, though.

Hope that helps, and besides, you don't always need to perfectly match the visual style with the source anyway. Good luck with your fangame!
I thought 2.5D was when you use 2d images in such a way that it simulates 3d.

e.g. Wolfenstein 3-D

I was a bit wrong about 2.5D and I was aware of that when I made the comment.
