Pseudo 3D with dynamic shadow experiment using tables

My current project mainly uses one 2048 x 2048 PNG for the pseudo 3D effect. The UFO & shadow are a combination of 64 actors that read a table which is mapped to the large PNG background. The 64 actors adjust themselves accordingly to the 3D height table. The bridge and walls are not separate actors from the background actor- the UFO actors switch to transparent by reading the X,Y values in the table. The top of the towers are a separate actor as are the bus and flag. The UFO can crash into the buildings by reading the table. Hope this makes sense!
