Falling off the bottom or jumping off the top of the screen in
Manic Miner does corrupt memory, and so should be avoided (until someone implements JSW
wraparound! :-) ).
In the Bug-Byte version it corrupts the screen layout of Room 7, and in
the Software Projects version it corrupts the guardians in Room 8, so if you must have
top/bottom wraparound, use the Bug-Byte game engine.
