This wasn't made to do 360 but it could be. Is it similar to what you are talking about?

I'm talking about scrolling that goes to -360º when it's at 360º, and vice-versa. That alone is easy enough, but clearly, the number of degrees must be larger [and stuff].

What you have to do is use sines and cosines to adjst the x, y, and size (z) of your objects.  It would be a little difficult, but definitely possible.  I might try to make a template for you, but I've got stuff going on, so it might not happen.

I'm talking about more of a point and click game, so you wouldn't really need a Z. Unfortunately, I just realized that when moving, in order for it to look good, the wall would have to move too xD

Mine does that. And mine doesn't operate by degrees, I never wanted to to make a circle, just back and forth. If you watch it, you will see that it uses different moving layers, like you just mentioned.

Ps. My walls move. To add degrees as you seem to be thinking, just make things scroll off one side and back onto the other. The problem would be that to have moving "walls" or layers, they must move at different speeds. Therefore to make them into a seamless, grouped rotation, they must be sized differently according to how fast they scroll. It would be far easier to make the layers into separate graphical elements of the screen (like mine has mountains in the background vs the house and stuff in front than to try to sync all the layers into one thing.

lol I was talking more about the corners of the wall must move, or it won't seem very realistic

You could try and make it so it just scrolled and try to design a working corner thing, but I don't think that would work very well.  The best way would be to just have either the objects that move or four different backgrounds.

That's what I'm saying- the objects would move still, it's just the corners move too.

Do you mean something like this?  It's pretty much impossible to get a real 3D room and still have it work as a game, but this is used by club penguin I'm pretty sure.

That's exactly what I was talking about!

Ok, then you can either use that or make you're own.  I drew it pretty sloppy, but you do need a curve for it to work.

Curve? Why? Thanks
