City Underbelly was one of the winning themes of the month, and I decided to go with something that could be pretty versatile. You could use this as an underground lair, or an above ground city chunk, you could put a market down in the large open space too!

Thank you! It is not a forced perspective though, it is just regular old perspective, and just the way it would look if you looked at the scene from above. The strictly top down maps are… technically… incorrect, because there is a perspective in a 3-d world. But they’ve sort of beein accepted as the standard for ttrpgs, which makes sense I guess since they adjust to grids the easiest.
…in school we referred to this as one-point perspective: everything converges toward a central point in our field of view…
(it’s not exactly how our eyes perceive geometry in real life but it’s a close-enough for rendering purposes)
Yup, that’s exactly it!
