They used top down perspective in Monkey Island allllll the time.  Well, everytime I walked from one area to another on Melee or Monkey on the map screens.  ;)

- No, I mean it's really STUCK. Like adventure-game stuck.

QuoteI get OOPS! THERE'S BEEN AN ERROR! when i go to download Dreamweb!

Using IE? Delete temporary files and history, then try link again (I know It's painful), but then, at least you won't be having same problem for this day (password is set daily, i think)

Arrgh! the pain! I can't....stand...it......ugh!

Whew. I deleted my temp. internet files. and that silly "system" folder too. What's this blue screen here...

Be innovative... do a bottom-up perspective, where all the characters walk about ona  glass floor. That would be great and original, and especially if there's a lot of female characters with skirts, or Scotsmen in kilts....

oops, what a giveaway!

Great idea SSH. They did that in the showers in LSL3 as I recall.

Edit: Although keys hidden under carpets become very easy to find :)

I was actually going to post that yesterday but thought against it as I didn't want to distroy my plan of creating Womens Tennis 3d sports game, in that very perspective, Geez, that would sell, anyone want to make a quick million, shit, Now if this game comes out, this thread is my proof, It was my idea.

and yes GG LSL3 shower had that perspective, It's actually quite strange cause I've been working on that game and the actual Larry sprites for his underneath view give the impression that he's Female, (it must be detatchable)

But not the ones on top of the carpet, hehehe

I don't remember if you actually see his thingy, but it probably has to do with the variable level of raunchiness.

There are two sprite sets for the raunchiness, the one I posted above, and for lower levels it has a black rectangle box that censors it.

Soo..... Is anyone planning to do a game in GP,HP or EGP (Grandma perspective, Helicopter perspective or Evil grandma perspective)?
