Not that I’m aware of. You’d be better served creating your hand as a sprite and setting it’s ‘RELATIVE\_TO\_CAMERA’ SpriteFlag to true.

Then just run whatever animation logic you have on the hand sprite rather than the background.

you should make the gun into a sprite that is relative to screen so that it is above the tiles, it will fix the problem
