My goal is that it will require less than 225Kb of archive space (currently 205Kb). Not too bad for such a large game!

The game will require about 150Kb RAM in order to play the game.

Yep... Pretty close!

The original required 8 Commodore 5.25" floppy disks (or 4 PC 5.25" floppy disks) totaling around 1.25Mb of data -- which was HUGE for those days! o.o

C64 floppy drives could read a single side of a floppy disk... which could hold about 165Kb. Technically, you could use both sides of a double sided disk but you would have to take the disk out, turn it upside down, and re-insert it into the drive. :paf:

Wow... has technology changed!

PC floppy drives could read both sides of a floppy disk... holding 320Kb I believe.

You remember walking over a bridge and getting ambushed by a gang of trolls. The trolls demand a toll... You can pay the toll for safe passage, but if you refuse they will attack you. Well... both options are now working. B)

Also, if you remember, when you piss off the town folk (NPCs in the towns), they will call the guards. The guards will chase you down relentlessly. If they catch you, they will place you under arrest. You have 2 choices... go quietly to prison or fight your way out of the circumstances. Well... both options are now working. B)

Stay tuned for some new screenies.
