LBP is a 3D or 2d platformer?

Dunno about the background, but everything else seems to be 3d in LBP.OXIIIIXO

it looks like a boring 3d platformer to me.blitzkid1

For everyone who is saying this is 2d. Would you consider games like golden axe, crash bandicoot, simpsons arcade game, and other games 2d? Because you could move up and down the enviroment, jump, and move in a similar way to every 3d game, except there are set boundaries. numba1234

That is simple. IT is 2d. Think of this. If you draw the X and Y axis, you can move any point left and right. Background gives a feeling of depth but all you do is move left, right up, down. That is 2d.

If they were 3d, characters could move up, down, left right, forward and backward.

The models are modeled in the 3d. The gameplay is 2d. I really fail to see why your having such problems with this.

Its just like New Super Mario Bros for the NDS.

Theres no Z-axis invloved in the game. Your honestly asking the question of it its 3d?Cali3350

What you are talking about is interpreting axis, but heck, interpreting axis and those, existing, is one completely different thing. If those games were really 3d, then the character could make a difference between moving up to the screen (north, or X axis) and jumping (moving within Z axis) but that doesn't happen.

If you notice there is a z axis. Except it isn't huge. :(.

actually, I take that back. It's 3d

just check out this vid: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Taiurn541SE

there is clearly a z axis there. It's subtle but it's there

That is why I'm hyping this game, because any platformer can be virtually made on this game. So much possibilities, so awesome :o... Time to make a SOTC collosus, or possibly anything else...
