Apologies for being a massive dweeb, but i think that's some variety of oblique projection, rather than isometric: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oblique_projection

I think you're technically correct, but 'isometric' is also a pretty widely used non-technical term when describing video games which have some form of non-perspective 3D projection, even if the axes are unequally foreshortened.

This is as far as you can get with square based grids. :) We call it "top down isometric".
