How can I render a layer twice but with additional z elevation?

Hi

I am trying to create the next effect (fake 3d, duplicating sprites on top of each other with different Z elevation):

This has been done by duplicating the sprite and manually adding z elevation to it (also, setting a darker tint to the Z on the bottom).

I wanted to create a system that took all the sprites on a layer and created visual copies of them, but slightly elevated on the Z-Axis.

I have tried the Copy Addon by Mikal but it seems like it ignores Z Elevation

Any help?

For anyone looking for this later,

A workaround would be creating a new sprite (e.g 3DOverlay) that will be spawned on top of every object that will use this effect and, when created, will set it's own animation to whatever the underlying object had at the moment.
