Comment on Should I make my game top down or side scrolling?

Without more information about what your goals are, I’d do side scrolling. Assuming it’s like a platformer. If you’re making like an RPG or tactical combat game, probably top down.

ok, I’ve edited my post to add a few more details about the game! It will be pixel art and will be a mix of exploration and puzzles, and possibly action (fighting the gods and their underlings). It will have lots of different references to ancient Greek myths and legends in the decorations, puzzles, etc.

A metroidvania a la celeste, cave story, untitled story, hollow knight, nine sols, guacamelee? That’s a genre I like that’s pretty popular. Side scroller for that kind of game is well understood.

something like hollow knight could be interesting…
