How to create fake 3D effect in gamesalad?

video of what I would like to create
Hi,
I would like to create a fake 3D effect in gamesalad, I have been searching for some tips or tutorials to create fake 3d but I cant find any. Basically I want the walls to move whenever player is moving, to create this 3d effect.

All I know is that its using replicate behaviour, maybe it has different name?

I know this it not best way but a suggestion. (I have not tested this, just a thought for you to try out). May be is better to use magnitude to define distance between wall and player.

Create Attribute Distance_Wall_1_to_P & attribute Wall_1_Image

In Player actor Constrain attr Distance_Wall_1_to_P = Wall 1 position X - self.position

In actor Wall 1 create rule:
If Distance_Wall_1_to_P
* >= 1 & <= 50 then change Wall_1_Image = 1
* >= 51 & <= 100 then change Wall_1_Image = 2
* >= 101 & <= 150 then change Wall_1_Image = 3
* >= 151 & <= 200 then change Wall_1_Image = 4
* >= 201 then change Wall_1_Image = 5

• >= -50 & <= 1 then change Wall_1_Image = 6
• >= -100 & <= -51 then change Wall_1_Image = 7
• >= -150 & <= -101 then change Wall_1_Image = 8
• >= -200 & <= -151 then change Wall_1_Image = 9
• >= -201 then change Wall_1_Image = 10

Create table Wall 1 Image with row Text, Wall_1_Image, Wall_2_Image, Wall_3_Image... (which is name of 10 direction images of your Wall 1 )

In Actor Wall 1, constrain self.image = tableCellValue(table Wall 1 Image, Wall_1_Image, 1)

Do a search for Stormy and 3d and you will find a lot of stuff @StormyStudio did in the past.
