Hi all, does Phaser 3 have native support for isometric view?
From what I know, there is some support but it depends on what you want to do.
Take a look at this demo on the labs http://labs.phaser.io/view.html?src=src/depth%20sorting\isometric%20map.js
(I love it)

It has the most minimal support out of the box in that it now supports basic shapes Iso shapes (some examples here with "Iso " prefix) and also supports depth sorting as demonstrated in this scene example (src here) and draw order. But mostly it’s not a well supported use case – you don’t get physics, tilemap support, and possibly some other stuff that I doesn’t come to mind right now.
There is a pretty promising a 3rd party plugin (ported from CE) which implements a lot of the stuff missing from the core library: interaction (mouse over notification), basic arcade style physics, and projection/sorting (though that seems to have a bug right now).
