This is a good idea. However, it will take sprite_height times the time to
display one sprite... which might be ok for a sw opening, but actually I
need to use the effect in-game...
Doesn't anybody think of a 3d solution? It'd just be a poly with the sprite
on it with coordinates something like:
0,0,1   1,0,1
0,1,0   1,1,0
but I have no clue how to do such a simple thing... Maybe I'll have to
learn 3d before thinking again about that.
