Would it be possible to transplant the maria-routines into the
JSW128 engine?, he asked. Yeah... Am I going to do it? Nope...
Seriously, it would take quite some time, and I don't have that much time to spare these days.

i know the feeling :). but that's cool to know that it's technically
possible. *glares at other programmers with some free time*

I am thinking about doing a more
streamlined, thought through version of the Maria-engine with quite
a few additions to be released with the new and improved hackulator, so who knows, maybe I'll do a 128Kb version as well. But, I don't
think it'll happen this year.

yeah... that's very cool... a few additions huh? just when you think
it has everything you could wish for!

How's the winter coming along in RR?

i'm still tweaking the 'master' version... little changes and
stuff... then i wanna send it over to you before i do the winter
changes, because i've got a couple of little problems that i recon
will need your expertise. one of these is that the 'toilet' sprite
(which is now a bed), refuses to appear in the master bedroom (which
is the ending room of RR). also i can't get the extralife routine to
run properly - it's the only part of the hackulator i'm having
difficulty with :)

P.S. Did you swap Amiga disks in the old days? It's been a while
since I read the expression `lamer'

i did a lot of disk swapping with the amiga, yes... i use the term
lamer always as to mean someone who can't program ;). i hack JSW, MM
and SMW (mario), yet i'm a lamer. it truly is a sign of the times :)
