Thanks. I did look at that for help, and it did cut down the code to 87%. I also tried ShrinkO8 which made my code completely unreadable but it did drop to 77%. either way I guess ill just plod on and hope when its finished one of them offers up a solution that I can post.

A girl I (we, as there were several of us) used to know, would get called 55378008 ...she never understood why, but we were very cruel back then :(

Loving the pseudo 3d effect, gives it an added charm :)

Surely he's playing with Manic Minor ?

Please don't limit it to just the Elk. Would love one for the range of Acorn machines (excl. Arch of course)

cor blimey! Now thats a challenge and a half and no mistake.

I've still got mine ;) And to this day I still read through it when I'm coding games. Relevant or not, I still believe it helps me :) I also got mine free, not the £1.95 asking price (can't remember which advert I applied to to get the free version tho :( )

LOL, aye, maybe ...now its in position 1,203 :)

Funny that. Was just looking thru my projects folder (its a huge list that could take weeks to go through !) and I stopped on my remake of Magic Mushrooms ;) I only got as far as defining the grafix (tiles where shrunk to 6x4 pixels) but still looked ok. Maybe one day ill get back and do it ;)

That is a remarkable job. You look at some of the games for the Elk and Beeb back in the day and they suffer so much from flicker, but I've yet to see any flicker in this. Really is very nice and polished :)
