Version 1.0.1 released

A new version of the main, game disc has been released.

Bugfixes and Changes:

  • Green screen option fixed to switch on and off correctly.
  • Fixed numerous screen routing and scenery issues with Level 5.
  • Level 5 is now able to be completed.
  • Internal memory optimisations to accommodate future in-game music/sfx.
  • Changed cheat mode to start with 64 keys and bombs which are then used normally.
  • HUD is now updated properly after using a garlic bomb.
  • Border flash made more prominent.
  • Increased and more varied monster contact damage.

I realised that I was decompressing level data into space reserved inside the main binary for working level data. However, as firmware is disabled, and the stack has been moved, I can just decompress into the area above A600h instead (from A620h to around AFFFh). Which means, I have increased the amount of free memory available from around ~1000 bytes to ~3300 bytes. Not only will that allow me to add in the Arkos Tracker 3 SFX/Music routines to support in-game SFX/Music, but it also gives me an addition 4k bytes (from B000h to BFFFh) that I can, after load, load SFX/Music into.
