 Re: BASIC Balloon Breaker

I don't think that var% is faster than var.

I noticed that the IF...THEN statement is very slow in Commodore BASIC, that is why i'm using on()gosub statements. I tested different solutions for the computer AI the last 2 month and the current one is the fastest, strange. I don't know where i can optimize the code because i writing BASIC programms in Notepad++ and copy&paste to VICE. Okay, i know VICE can handle uppercase to CBM petscii but only the SHIFTed. Maybe, i can optimize the tilesets where are using uppercase instead of chr$.

And, i'm thinking about a different charset in hires like ZX Spectrum, also no multicolor. The sprites(!) looks nicier than in multicolor because they aren't so stretched. What do you think?
