A project I'm doing on the PS2 requires relatively large isometric maps, and the hell if I was going to do this by hand :)

I managed to do this in one evening, which speaks volumes of Ruby/Gosu. Thanks Jlnr

Wow, that looks quite cool. How did you do the screen coordinates to world coordinates calculation?

Very similar to that of a top down tile game.

I'm storing all the tiles in a 2D array @level_data[y][x]

loop through it and use the x, y index to multiply the offsets.

Tile::WIDTH = 32
Tile::HEIGHT = WIDTH / 2

# coords
x * Tile::WIDTH
y * Tile::HALF_HEIGHT

# x row offsets
if x.odd?
x += Tile::HALF_WIDTH
