By faux z-axis I mean that your z-axis is only selectively measured based on the area you’re in. The number over the rabbit’s head is their z-axis, which is 0 both at the top of the hill and at the bottom. Invisible triggers at the top of the hill scoot you down 16 pixels while simultaneously giving you a z-axis of 16, seemingly leaving you in the same spot. The slope adjusts your z-axis when you come into contact with it, setting it to the difference between it’s x axis and the player’s. Invisible triggers that surround the whole system reset you to a z-axis of 0 after subtracting your z-axis from your y-axis, essentially making sure that you visually stay in the same location despite losing your z-axis.
