Jumping mechanic in a top-down rpg like game?

you could maybe set your player to not detect the layer that the obstacle is in for as long as your jump animation is playing... I think. not sure exactly how you would go about letting your player know which collision layer the obstacle is in however. maybe raycast.

Jumping is basically the same as a side-scroller, just the camera position is different. When the user presses jump you add a certain amount of y velocity, and then every update you add gravity to the velocity, and update the player position. It works the same in 2D or 3D basically.

See this example I posted a little while ago. It's for a 2D sprite so try it out (the logic is the same even with 3D or different camera angles).
