Perhaps the guardian sprite bitmap is using too much memory, it
definately takes up the most memory in the game... Though that
doesn't explain why the editor works but the game doesn't.

I'm running it on a celeron 2.3ghz with 512mb DDR ram and it works
fine.

The revamped version will take some time, quite a few rooms left to
do.. and there's the music to redo aswell.
