 Re: Ladies And Gentlemen, Her Majesty The Bitmap Softsprite!

I'll contact you.. I dunno if you want to play for your own (without the level editor, i could import the tiles somehow later then):

we have 2 constant colors for the complete level..
one is the brightest yellow $77 and the other one you can chose freely.
however these two colors are also used for the sprites, so choose them wisely. at the moment it seems to be a nice move to have the second color as dark as possible (some levels have a brighter color at the moment though).
the tiles itself can be constructed freely using the bitmap mode,
one tile is 8x16 (multicolor thus 16x16) and has 4 colorram characters "behind".
that way per 4x8 block you can chose 2 free colors in connection with the 2 solid ones.

i dunno about the tile count (I am at the moment at work) i think you can use around 240 tiles freely, however i have saved a range of tiles for the animations. I think it would be safe if you firstly use only 128 tiles or 160 or something like this...

however if you can wait a little i can supply the level editor soonish. But if you wanna start pixeling good look and I sure be interested in the results!

BTW the leveleditor is on Windows...
