So I have decided to make Lowercase I 8k. The way I'm going to set it up is thusly: The game automatically starts in bank 3. It will jump from bank 3 to bank 2. From bank 2 it will jump to bank 0. From bank 0 it must jump back to bank 3 since BIOS will not allow a jump from bank 0 to 1. So this means at the beginning of bank 3, I must put a bit of code that if the screen number is greater than 0, then jump to bank 1, where the ending will eventually be. My brain hurts just from that. This also means I must make an empty bank 1 (or fill it with some code that I am not going to use) to make bank 0 be bank 0. Bank 0 is actually the third bank because, like I said, the game starts on bank 3. It's only a 4k game, so now there's only 2 banks. I'm going to make it 8k, so there will be 4 banks, banks 0-3. I slept all day AND most of the night because I need to change my life around because I have a doctor appointment at 10am on Monday where he is going to force me to take even more pills to lower my cholesterol. I'm then going to tell him about the episode where I nearly choked to death on an Advil. I swear there is something wrong with my throat. Just this morning, I choked on my veggie burger. When life is being stupid at you, it's best to have a game plan for what you know is going to happen.
