then maybe a map mode to see 2D as well?

Press 'Mode' like in squidgetx's Raycaster, that would be perfect! Who's gonna make it?

maybe me later on.  And please stop posting that picture over and over again j/k it's fine but irks me to see it 5 times in a row

I can imagine the game without it. Of course, a zombie mode could be made without this feature

Playing block dude while fighting off zombies! :O

On a more serious note, this looks amazing!  I didn't even think that Raycasting might be possible in Axe!  I can't wait to see where this goes!

That was on purpose, I knew it would annoy you

if i made it, i wouldn't have a map mode. that'd make the challenge lose value, personally.

Without the map 2D feature, it would be impossible, believe me. I can imagine the game without it. Of course, a zombie mode could be made without this feature

impossible? nah. just difficult and frustrating. the picture shows what i'd imagine. the HUD indicates whether or not you are carrying a block. a black/white block cannot be picked up, a dark/light gray block can. so this picture indicates you are standing on a block you cannot pick up, facing a block you can pick up, which is facing a block you cannot pick up. and you are holding a block.

Yup, using several colours to display depth.

mainly perspective, though.
and one more mockup i made, not as good:

A new feature could also be added: instead of the player sprite falling down like this:




______________X
                        _________________

_______________
                        X_________________

Several frames and make it fall with some gravity
