So, if you've ever played Cave Story, you've seen this title screen.

I was wondering if I could replicate this using layers in the room editor. How would I go about doing this?
EDIT: I mean in more detail:
How would I have a looping image move to the left repeatedly? I don't need help with text.

Have a sprite for each moving bit, make an object to draw a section. Draw it twice with the one object, once at normal position and once offset to the right by the image width.

Make the object move left constantly. When it exits the room on the left make it jump right by the image width.

Do this for each layer of animation. Keep it all on one gm layer.

Edit : This assumes the image is the same width of the room. If not then the number of draws may change.
