Diagonal-down
A diagonal-down view is an elevated view of an object from above. It is any angle above a behind view and below a top-down view. This also includes 2D games with a 3/4 view where elements of a side view and top-down view are mixed. For example, if the ground/floor is flat and seen from directly overhead, but the sides of the characters are visible, it's a diagonal-down view. If the ground/floor is seen from directly overhead and only the tops of the characters' heads and shoulders are visible, the top-down genre should be applied instead.
