Like sort of if battlefield and nethack combined to form an online top down multiplayer shooter. Do you think it would work?

It would be interesting to see it implemented in my opinion.
This isnt a game i may use as a project just wanted to see if you would be interested if one was made.

Thanks

if it's topdown then why not use ships instead of people ?
this depends on how you want the "characters" to move around but since it's topdown things like ducking and jumping will work less i presume

If you have ever played counter strike 2d somewhat like that, no jumping or crouching.

Would need to know more for how you want to the game to run.
