Can you do an isometric perspective with HTML5 ?

Question

It is possible to do an isometric perspective with HTML5 ? It is with setTransform? Or does it exist another way?

Example:

Answer 1

Well to make an isometric game its not so much as skewing the whole canvas, its more about the graphics you use. For example the tiles are generally h=w/2. So in a normal game you'd have a tile thats 32x32 in an isometric game you'd make it 32x16. Also the placement of tiles is a bit different to compensate for the angle.

Short answer yes isometric games are fully possible using canvas. Look at Freeciv for an example of one.
