In graphics and gaming, 2.5D refers to a type of graphics that combines 2D and 3D elements. The gameplay is typically restricted to a 2D plane, but the graphics may be used to create a sense of depth and perspective.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Some common techniques used to create 2.5D graphics include:<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n
    \n
  • \n
    Using 2D sprites with a parallax effect: <\/strong><\/span>This technique creates the illusion of depth by moving background objects at a slower rate than foreground objects.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/li>\n
  • \n
    Using 3D models with a fixed perspective: <\/strong><\/span>This technique creates the illusion of depth by using a fixed camera angle to view the 3D models.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/li>\n
  • \n
    Using 2D sprites and 3D models together: <\/strong><\/span>This technique allows for a greater degree of flexibility in creating the illusion of depth.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n
    \n

    2.5D graphics are often used in video games because they offer a number of advantages over both 2D and 3D graphics. 2.5D graphics are typically more affordable and easier to create than 3D graphics, while still offering a greater sense of depth and realism than 2D graphics.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

    \n

    Some examples of 2.5D video games include:<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

    \n
      \n
    • \n
      Super Mario Bros. 3<\/span><\/div>\n<\/li>\n
    • \n
      Donkey Kong Country<\/span><\/div>\n<\/li>\n
    • \n
      Sonic the Hedgehog<\/span><\/div>\n<\/li>\n
    • \n
      The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past<\/span><\/div>\n<\/li>\n
    • \n
      Metroid<\/span><\/div>\n<\/li>\n
    • \n
      Castlevania: Symphony of the Night<\/span><\/div>\n<\/li>\n
    • \n
      Streets of Rage 2<\/span><\/div>\n<\/li>\n
    • \n
      Mortal Kombat<\/span><\/div>\n<\/li>\n
    • \n
      Guilty Gear<\/span><\/div>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n
      \n

      2.5D graphics are also used in other applications, such as animation, product design, and architecture. For example, 2.5D graphics can be used to create realistic-looking product mockups or to create interactive architectural models.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

      \n

      Overall, 2.5D graphics are a versatile and effective way to create graphics that offer a balance between 2D and 3D. They are often used in video games, animation, product design, and architecture.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false},"sceneri-docs-tag":[],"class_list":["post-13555","sceneri-docs-glossar","type-sceneri-docs-glossar","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\n2.5D -
