@rasterman A similar technique is used to render weapons in 1st person, so it never clips with anything the player gets close to.
Though these days it's not a 2D projection, but a proper 3D render that's just layered on top of the image rendered by the main camera.
That way all the dynamic lights work as expected.

It feels a bit wrong when you get close to something, as the illusion of depth gets broken, so more serious devs will animate the character moving the weapon out of the way to prevent this.

Either "From Beyond" or "Polaris", there's always a Lovecraft story to give context to an unusual situation like this. There's probably a better example. :thinker:

So DK is a 2D projection on 3D space, interacting with beings from a higher dimension. He never left the 1980s arcade. And only death liberates him into the third dimension. Fascinating. :0390:
>same arguments against games but now against manga
What a fresh opinion, never heard that one before. And people who play video games are going to grow up to become serial killers too. Do you know you can just kill people in video games? How depraved! Even tear someone spine out! Its so naughty! And in some songs they sing about rape and use the most evil world of them all, NIGGER.
And btw btw the most evil deprived thing you can do, according to them, is to dislike jews.
