Building this chill ghibli sim game with 2.5d style using Gpt-6 Astra, Crayon and Threejs. Try my other ghibli games here while i cook this one:

@usecrayon I always follow a train

@usecrayon 🚂

@usecrayon Wow this look good, me too am also a developer

@usecrayon Thanks! start sharing your work :D

@usecrayon Brilliant! Love the surreal animated feel in 3d.

@usecrayon thank you! just dropped the full update --

@usecrayon The 2.5D choice is doing real work here. It gives the generated world a readable spatial grammar, so the model can help with atmosphere without making the player lose the path through the scene.

@usecrayon Love this 3d 2d mixed style

@usecrayon Thanks!

@usecrayon Awesome 🤩

@usecrayon thanks!

@usecrayon That ghibli style looks so cozy

@usecrayon thanks!

@usecrayon 🫡

soothing

Thanks big C

@usecrayon This is great!

@usecrayon Thank you!

@usecrayon I’m really trying not to gaze at Astra anymore. The company behind it has become very fragile and has terrible leadership.

@usecrayon threejs for 2.5d makes sense visually but depth sorting on layered sprites became my whole week last time i tried something similar. are you doing orthographic + z-planes or a different trick for the overlap?

@usecrayon the world itself is full 3d with 2d layers wherever needed

@usecrayon Post it on dployers

Update! the game is now live :D

@usecrayon Looks awesome. how much of three.js knowledge is required for this ?

@usecrayon what's giving the water that soft look, a shader or just a gradient plane?
