The process of designing and building video games that use two-dimensional graphics and gameplay mechanics, typically using engines like Unity, Godot, or GameMaker Studio. It involves sprite art, tile-based level design, physics, and scripting, and is a common entry point for indie game developers due to its lower technical overhead compared to 3D.
