I don't have any resources to get a game like this done, although it would normally be an easy game to make.
I was inspired to make an isometric 2.5D game so I can play a simple game when I'm in study hall at school. I played a lot of Sonic 3D Blast on the GameCube when I was younger and I learned about Super Mario RPG Legend of the Seven Stars within the month, plus I also played a lot of Minecraft and Terraria back in their day, so I thought it would be an interesting title to make. Also, just for simplicity and a fun challenge, I'm only using colors from the NES palette. All 54 colors.
Since I know only me and only a few others would play the game normally, I figure I would share progress here just for archival purposes. This is a passion project, I'm only designing the game for my usage, but I'm adding online multiplayer anyways so I can hook my friends and do invasion events, stuff like that.
The struggle right now is finding time to work, learning how to program, and making pre-rendered 3D models to convert to 2D sprites. But I've made tiles for worlds, a handful of items like swords and metals. And I right now I'm using Defold, even though I cant for the life of me find where to upload my own sprites and tiles.
Thanks for reading, I'm doing some work to get this game completed.
