Engine for isometric turn based game

Hi, is there an extension out there somewhere for an engine for an isometric turn based game similar to Civilization?

Thanks
Jason

 

Probably — you could poke around in the Asset Store.

But honestly, there isn't much an "engine" for such a game could do for you that isn't pretty easy to do yourself. Civilization hasn't used 2D pixel graphics for a while; they're 3D graphics, simply constrained to a grid. So, really, there's not much to it. The trickiest part is probably selecting the right model for each tile based on what's around it (particularly on the coast, where land meets water). But a big look-up table, or even thoughtful naming of your model resources, will get the job done.

If you want to use 2D pixel graphics, that's pretty easy too, but we may need to explain how to ensure your sprites layer properly.
