There are two project types at the moment: Classic (3 dimensional view) and Platformer (2 dimensional sidescroller view). I was building a sidescroller yesterday and got a better look at them both and thought: What if a Top-Down project type would be added?
It would have the player's view facing from top to bottom. If the player is to move his/hers cursor far enough to a certain area, the their view would move further to it, not keeping the player's character out of view.
With the drawplane enabled, you can place blocks on the ground for the player to walk on. You can also stack these to make walls or platforms to jump on. Creating different shapes should work just like in the Platformer project type. When placing water, you would die when deep enough in the water. There would be a setting which adds a wall of invisible blocks (Such as illegal blocks) that prevents the player from touching it. Models should be able to place just like in the other two types.
You pick up weapons just like in Classic and Platformer. To aim, you point your mouse to a certain direction to shoot there. By jumping you can shoot higher. You cannot aim vertically.
Parkour would be almost like in Classic, except without 3D view.
P.S.
Controller support would be great.
- What would it look like?

- What can you do with the editor?
