I haven't seen a post from Pitfall Harry (Ben) for a while.

how exactly are you making these new maps?


I did a complete disassembly of Pitfall! some month ago. So it's quite easy to find and change some parameters and reassemble the whole thing again.

is it easilly possible to add in items that do affects?

That would be tough, because the 4K of the ROM are already nearly 100% used. To find the necessary space, the game would require a major redesign. And I doubt, that I can code much better than David Crane did.

just how far would you go (Tom) to make pitfall better without it taking over too much time?

I wouldn't do any graphic hacks, because I'll leave that to others. And I wouldn't do all changes that require new code sequences. But I could change some constants (e.g. how far Harry jumps) or perhaps the traveling speed of the logs.
