attribute and thus escape having a green background, but to be honest
it kinda grew on me :) (plus, with that screen being green, there is
a coloured background of every colour in the game, which I thought
was a nice touch). So I decided I would ask about the pokes for
my /next/ MM game, where I will be having more than 1 Solar Power
room and thus a black background would be more desirable.
Speaking of Solar Power editing, I had a go at making a SP room with
deadly rays. I did this by making the Fire attribute the same as the
SP attribute. It didn't work :(. Next I will try and make a block act
like SP, by setting it's attribute to the same.
Also, in my next MM game I was thinking of moving the switches in the
Kong room. Shame they can't be placed on a per-room basis (same with
the SP) but I guess you can't have everything..
Another note, I noticed that in "Bad Trip - The Divvy's Lair", you
can create glitches in another room by jumping out the top of the
screen (and said glitches cause infinite death). So a slight rehash
is in order...
