This is an addendum to my previous question from this thread

Here's general background to what I want to achieve:
Been playing with js to get a pseudo 3d look. (via a mode7 plugin)
I get great results when using it, but there's no easy way to mimic 3D objects in 3D space.

Event images behave similar to 2d cards that always face the camera.
Is there a call to apply a skew method to an event's image?

There is a method, however, for skewing the entire scene as below (left:normal, right: skew by x):
scene_skew.png

Looking through the js library, globals I could use to apply the skew method are Sprite, Spriteset_Map, etc

Not sure if the syntax would be as follows:

Code:
// I was thinking the syntax would be similar to this (Pixi skew, from the above thread)
SceneManager._scene.rotation = 0.1
SceneManager._scene.skew.x = 0.6
SceneManager._scene.skew.y = 0.15

// Not sure something like this works
Spriteset_Base(???).skew.x = 0.6
//or
Spriteset_Map(??eventidentifier??).skew.x = 0.6
Or another global entirely.

If this is a one liner, I could just put the amount skewed to a variable and increment/decrement it based on your perspective to get a somewhat 3D look on a plane.

Our latest feature is an interview with... me?!

People4_2 (Capelet off and on) added!

Just beat the last of us 2 last night and starting jedi: fallen order right now, both use unreal engine & when I say i knew 80% of jedi's buttons right away because they were the same buttons as TLOU2 its ridiculous, even the same narrow hallway crawl and barely-made-it jump they do. Unreal Engine is just big budget RPG Maker the way they make games nearly identical at its core lol.
Can someone recommend some fun story-heavy RPGs to me? Coming up with good gameplay is a nightmare! I was thinking of making some gameplay platforming-based, but that doesn't work well in RPG form*. I also was thinking of removing battles, but that would be too much like OneShot. I don't even know how to make good puzzles!
one bad plugin combo later and one of my followers is moonwalking off the screen on his own... I didn't even more yet on the new map lol.
