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

Gaia: I know this technique (it was used in Rocket Science aswell). But i need atleast another videoram page for perfect scrolling. If I use a simpler method like it is used in Rick Dangerous, where the screen scrolls and after that you can do some actions again it would be possible but not with the current game code (for instance the score is overlapping the level content and thus must be redrawn every scrollstep). I know there is a easy way to scroll bitmaps on the plus4 and I appreciate it a lot, but it is most probably not possible to use it for this particular game. I think the second part of this game will have propper scroll, whatever we will implement then, lets see.
The problem for this game is not the possibility it is the limited memory (for instance we have a double buffer for the gfx). (i thought already about a 256kb agsp version but in my eyes this would be cheating)... sorry guys..
