You could also use spacing for that.

Code: [Select]
>>>
>>>

^ Steep hill

Code: [Select]

^Gradual incline/decline

Ya, I was also going to suggest that.

Something like this for all of them?
(decline right, decline up, decline left, decline down)
Gradual:
Code: [Select]
>  >  >  ^ ^ ^ <  <  < v v v
>  >  >  ^ ^ ^ <  <  < v v v
>  >  >  ^ ^ ^ <  <  < v v v

Moderate:
Code: [Select]
> > > > ^ ^^ ^ < < < < v vv v
> > > > ^ ^^ ^ < < < < v vv v
> > > > ^ ^^ ^ < < < < v vv v
Steep:
Code: [Select]
>>>>> ^^^^^ <<<<< vvvvv
>>>>> ^^^^^ <<<<< vvvvv
>>>>> ^^^^^ <<<<< vvvvv

I wonder if isometric maps would be fast enough. Something like Kirby's Dream Course:

Was grounded for a few days from the computer :/

But anyways, so far I haven't really worked on the engine yet x.x  I was working on another game I might post about if it ever gets anywhere.  I also like the idea of the closer the arrows are, the steeper the incline is.  Today is going to be an unproductive day I can tell, so I'll probably end up working on this at school tomorrow.

Sorry to hear D:

I kinda like the closer arrows thing. Something I wonder, though, is if the physics would be hard to code without floating points?

They would be fast, but believe me, isometric is tricky when it comes to making a map from tiles.  And, an isometric tileset requires more graphical data.  I'd say an isometric map requires about 50% more tile data than a regular map

Yeah that's the issue, you need like multiple kind of tiles sides, for example grass + wall, sand + wall, etc.

Couldn't you divide the tiles in two and have half-tiles? Or would that just murder speed?

THat would require some sort of masking and I'M unsure if in the end, displaying such map would be much easier.
