Hi! I have a question regarding the background art rules:

The rules and FAQ say one background/time of day/location, which should not change the scene significantly when zoomed into, but I'm planning on having a single rotating background that makes use of silhouettes (like a cityscape) that aren't actually indicative of where the game is taking place because the game will mostly be location agnostic character monologue.

The background is planned to rotate constantly without shifting to different parts of the image to match the writing itself.

Concept sketch for the background
I can adjust this concept according to what is permitted within the rules, but can I use silhouettes of different structures etc. in this background so long as the time of day doesn't change (ie. no day to night) and the locations shown are not used to illustrate the story itself?

From your description, it sounds like this is a looping background, which is totally fair game! I'm interested to see how a rotating BG does versus a BG that scrolls past, so I'll be on the look out for your project 👀

It is a looping one yes, thank you!  Excited to make it happen :)  👍
