You mentioned layers, but that doesn't describe the actual "art" that's on the layer. Are you describing a series of panels, sprites, or models?


It depends on your ideas, on your knowledge.
If you are a good draftsman, make sprites (and use it with panels in fact of the more easy z-order by layer=). This way you can have a realy "flat" look.
Or use models. This can make it look deeper.

(An other idea is to use a large seamless texture on a block as background and scroll it by setting the u/v-value)
