p.s. Now I just need to give the player more than 3 lives... Looking
into that now.

Change the byte at 85DDh (Bug-Byte) or 85E3h (Software Projects).

Thanks again!

Which reminds me, I'm also making a catalogue of block arrangement
patterns, including quirky features, so obviously a great deal of them
will come from Andrew's list. I'll be giving you credit of course but
I'm just giving you a chance to object (which I figure you won't).
I'll also be adding some patterns which aren't quirky exactly, but
push at the boundaries of the game engine - for example, the way you
have to jump onto the conveyor, hold the opposite direction, and then
jump straight up onto a platform you just missed with your jump in the
room "The Dungeon of Erotic Punishment", not to mention the 2 devices
in "Fruits of the Room" that I almost accidentally created.

I'll be using screenshots with nice graphics to drive the points home,
and I'm even going to offer some advice on overall room/game design.
It's my way of trying to help people improve room design who are new
or unfamiliar to it.
