Nice work so far :) Have you thought about entering this game for the 4k/8k section of http://www.minigamecomp.org.uk?

Im sorry, i dont understand the logic of limiting yourself to 8k.
64k is limiting enough :) Why not use the extra 56k available to you and add some spit and polish? |

yes, in fact i am not bound to the 8k limit, all in all i do not think that i need more than 8k ... at all, but we'll see if adding hours of music and gfx will pump it up too much, do not worry, the space on disk is rare also, i need 128 k alone for 256 highscore table ... ;) |

ok, i save 16 entries for high and lo,
2 bytes for score
1 byte for level
13 bytes for name
all in all 256 bytes for hiscore, and 256 bytes for loscore, all in all half a kbyte ... ;) furthermore i am planning to save the replay of the game, this won't be done for each level, but for a global highscore, meaning, 128 additional bytes for each entry, the rounding to 16 entries is just because i like 256 byte borders ... ;)

Just a comment:
for 13 chars as name, you hardly need 13 bytes. |

True...
13 bytes is long enough to save 20 character long name without any compression... and you have some bits left.
Plus if you save lo scores you dont need 2 bytes per score, just one, assuming the table starts with 255 as lo score :)
Now - you can use compression on top of that - there are free source codes out there to do that.
