But it is an interesting idea to poke random bytes into a room and

functions...

On which topic, when I was in the early stages of making JSW vs
Beatles, I managed to copy a sprite page over the item locations.
After tidying up the mess, I kept one room with the items replaced by
fire blocks, and it wound up as Taxman in homage to George Harrison's
song
