Backgrounds and active elements
A slightly more advanced option when building game worlds is to add a level of immersive
depth to the scene. Having a static image to show the village looks good, especially when
you start adding houses and NPCs to the mix; but to really make it shine, you should layer
the background and add additional active elements to liven it up.
We won't add them to the sample project at this time, but it is worth experimenting with in
your own projects (or try adding it to this one)—it is a worthwhile effect to look into.
