Aren't 3D games already 2D, as they are just projecting 3D world onto 2D plane? Alternatively, taking 2D intersection of 3D world would lead to something like 2D/3D mode of Miegakure: [VIDEO]

For those wondering, Miegakure is a not-yet-released 4D puzzle platformer. Think Flatland but as a 4D video game. [VIDEO]

The test in the article was extremely easy for me, I guess I can visualize better than most people (I had no idea some people have trouble with that). It's funny, because I've considered myself to be an "auditory" person. Something I tried to visualize recently, and found quite challenging, was trying to remember this video: [VIDEO] I watched it a couple of years ago, and last night I replayed it in my head, but with great difficulty.
