Yes, you are in top down mode. When you switch to free move mode (Press ‚F’ key) it will work differently and you will be able to fly around in the map like in a First Person Game.
Let me know if you are having trouble with it. If you ever need quick help you can also join our discord. I’m hanging out there almost all day while coding and will get notifications on my phone. Also a lot of other friendly people there who will be able to help.
