----
This demonstration revolves around the past few videos, dedicated to top-down movement, the grid, and how to convert Cartesian coordinates into isometric ones (see the links below).
As the grid and the player are almost entirely disconnected, using Godot’s built-in tile map system, we can easily make changes to the original demo. in this example, we go from a top-down to an isometric grid-based game. The grid and the collisions work the same. We only convert the player’s position and motion from the Cartesian to the isometric coordinate system.
You will see a few more differences, as for example, now, the player and the obstacles need to be sorted on screen. We use the Y sort note for that.

In the video, I said Godot takes in account the tiles' pivot in the world_to_map function. It turns out it doesn't, so we still have to offset the objects (only on the Y axis).
