Hello! I have a question regarding an idea I'd like to use for the jam, but I'm concerned about it's viability.
I'd like to set the VN in a prison, where the (sprite) you're talking to is behind bars. The perspective/background of the scene does not change, and otherwise it would be a single background, it's just that there's an object (the bars) between the POV character and the sprite. Here's a gif of what I'd like to be able to do.

This rule (under ONE BACKGROUND) makes it sound like it MIGHT be possible (but I'd just like to check):
- use layers to show a sliced up an image as a single background (no opaque parts of layers can overlap)
I'm perfectly ok having the bars be slightly transparent if that would make it viable! And if it wouldn't, would it be possible to either merge it with the (planned NVL) textbox or have it count as my single additional item?
Apologies for (what I feel like might be) a push of the limits!
