Hi Niko, Well, in the event you were flying on dragons or you needed a truly 3D maze such as going up staircases etc you might want a 3D array to store the entire game level. Though the math and coding involved is just slightly more complex going 3D. With 2D some trig functions can serve pretty well but as you add extra demmentions to the game the math skill goes up some. However, staircases can be faked. You can have a staircase item in your array and when you cross it load a new level which represents a new floor in 2D space rather than an actual complete 3D maze. Some games do need 3D complexity if you have different levels with in the same level of the game. Such as if you have to climb up or jump on to a platform to get to where you want to go.
