please excuse my adverbs :) i meant that you can pass in front of AND behind many objects. This gives a really good depth impression throughout the whole game (especially when in the forest). i may have seen this trickery in some other bitsies but i haven't got no clue how it works.
If you wanna share your process please consider writing a devlog. i'll be happy to read about it!
P.S. By the way i noticed that the pho bowl somehow "ate" its table background, which isn't visible. Keep up the good work!
oh right yeah! So that’s a combination of some borksy hacks involving sprites and tiles and items having no background, and then the tiles with no background can be made to be layered in front of your avatar. I forget the names of them right now but they’re 2 easy to find hacks on the list of hacks when you go to the borksy tool.
OmGGGG also yeah it’s so weird, I’ve noticed that SOMETIMES the transparent background hack doesn’t work for SOME rooms or objects. But like not on every play through. I have no idea how that’s happening but I appreciate the mystery.
anyway yeah I could do a little walkthrough of my process in more detail sometime. It was both simple and time consuming.
