Orthographic camera in experiences

Having this setting would open up lots of 2D gameplay possibilities.

There is a separate feature request here but it is for Studio, my request is to have it available for experiences. Create an orthographic view - #3 by VegetationBush

I currently have a spot the difference minigame in my game. In the default camera, the identical objects on the left and the right side of the screen would look slightly different due to the camera angle, so I had to make it behave more like an orthographic camera.
I used a workaround for this detailed here: https://devforum.roblox.com/t/orthographic-camera-view/33371 and that requires the camera to be really far away.

However using this method would surface a separate issue - on devices that has graphics level quality 3 or lower, the objects just won’t render due to the camera distance.

(The workaround to this workaround is to check the player’s SavedQualityLevel and either bring the camera closer or prompt the player to set graphics level higher, however, this workaround doesn’t work on automatic graphics mode)

Please make it possible to have orthographic camera in experiences so we don’t have to code workarounds on workarounds on workarounds
