So here it is. It kind of only works for part of the map for some reason, so I'd need to find a more object-efficient technique, I think, if I wanted to continue working on this.
I just woke up from a dream in which I had downloaded your shader, and instead of making distant walls darker, it made all of the walls look like blocky trees, and it was gorgeous.
I realized today that I could totally implement a monster, but then it turned out that A) the sprite I picked was FAR too wide, B) you can't change Z-order in an action (to do wall clipping), and C) I accidentally deleted the sprite and it disappeared and I got irritated and stopped. But it would work if I only had some way of changing z-order in an action. Maybe creation order? HMMM.

Wow, scrolling one day, and Doom the next. Clearly, somebody is going to have bump mapping done tomorrow.
Man, whenever I try to store negative numbers in alterable variables, they end up getting zeroed. Lucky.
edit: just added a shader, and I bet you know how. I don't have time to add my code this evening, but the distant walls are darker now. ;)

I love how visible the demo makes the process; now I see how they can do this kind of stuff for that small javascript contest too...
I've faked Z-order by having
I've faked Z-order by having a bunch of copies of an object, created in the correct order, and setting their visibility on or off. Just a thought.
