    Hey there!
    After some input from @LtgGames looking for a way to achieve parallax backgrounds in his 2D game (here's the thread: https://www.buildbox.com/forum/index.php?threads/2d-background-parallax.21133) , I've decided to start working on a custom asset able to do that.

    What is Parallax scrolling?

    Parallax scrolling is a technique where background images move past the camera more slowly than foreground images, creating an illusion of depth. (From Wikipedia).

    The development is already in an advanced state; I'll publish this on indym.itch.io as soon as it's ready.
    I'd appreciate your feedback about which features you'd like to have in such an asset, thank you! :)

    These are the current features so far:
    - support for both 2D and 3D Worlds.
    - support for horizontal, vertical or free (both directions) scrolling.
    - extremely easy to add to a project and set up.
    - support for any number of layers.

    And here's a long clip showing all of these features:
