mm. The same doesn't apply to the C64 version, if i'm correct..
Argh, seeing z80 assembly code always gives me the "willies"
literally :) (coming from an 6502 asm fan) :)
I made an "evil" program for the c64, kind of like a screen saver.
It sits in an interrupt, and if you don't poke the keyboard for a
while 2 Willy's and a "Macaroni Ted" start to adventure on the
screen. In the next version letters shall act as EARTH and numbers
and symbols as FIRE (so that they will "respawn" upon touching it).
The animations and some of the code has been "lended" from a c64 JSW2
source disassembly :D
