🧠 2D vs 3D Game Development presentation
- 1. 🧠 2D vs 3D Game Development: Tools & Techniques Basics……
- 2. 🧩 Introduction What is Game Development? Game development is the process of designing, building, and publishing games using code, art, sound, and logic. Games can be 2D or 3D — each has different development paths.
- 3. 🎨 What is 2D vs 3D? Aspect 2D Games 3D Games Dimension Flat (height & width) Volumetric (height, width, depth) Examples Celeste, Hollow Knight Fortnite, GTA V Camera Fixed or side/top-down view Movable 3D camera Graphics Sprites, pixel art Models, lighting, textures
- 4. ️ 🛠️ Tools Used Tool/Engine 2D Support 3D Support Notes Unity ✅ ✅ Versatile, supports both Godot ✅ ✅ Open-source, beginner-friendly Unreal Engine ❌ ✅ Best for high-end 3D Pygame (Python) ✅ ❌ Basic 2D game framework Construct 3 ✅ ❌ Drag-and-drop 2D engine Blender ❌ ✅ 3D modeling and animation tool
- 5. ⚙ Techniques & Workflows Game Development Workflow: 2D vs 3D 🎮 2D Workflow: • Create sprites in tools like Photoshop, Aseprite. • Tilemaps for levels. • Collision with rectangles or circles. • Animation: frame-by-frame sprite sheets. ️ 🕹️ 3D Workflow: • Modeling in Blender (characters). • Rigging & animation (skeletons). • Physics & lighting: realistic effects. • Cameras: third-person, first-person, dynamic.
- 6. 🚀 Advantages & Challenges Aspect 2D Games 3D Games Easier to Learn ✅ Simpler math & design ❌ Requires knowledge of 3D math Development Time ✅ Faster for solo/indie devs ❌ Longer development time Visual Appeal ✅ Stylish, artistic ✅ More immersive, realistic Performance ✅ Runs on low-end devices ❌ Requires more processing power Which Is Better? It Depends!
