    Yeah OK sorry cyborg, that last post didn't say what I really meant, and sounded wrong. I mean, anything on a screen that is moving (like a scrolling background) can be generalised to a sprite on the speccy.

    These screens will use too much Spectrum memory, even if you use tiles. So I think, 128K versions of these games could be done with some background simplifacations.
    By the way, what art package do you use to make these great fake screenshots?

    Cool. It would be great if we could get some music in there.
