Demonstration of building with multi layers.

There are a variety of bricks to choose from.

The building grid dynamically expands with mouse movement.

Press a key to change the height at which you are building. A shadow beneath the brick helps visualize where it is.

A red border around the building grid indicates if a brick is able to be placed at the cursor.

Bricks can be rotated.

The grid can be rotated and zoomed into.
