Lingering diarrhea

Back when I started this project, I never dreamed it would become as complicated as it is now. Not only that, I'm also amazed that I could keep it all in 2k! Anyway, if or when the game is released, I want to award people with something special if they get a certain score. Like Activision did with the patches. I don't know if anyone on here can make patches, I think there was someone, but I don't remember who. Another thing is that I don't know what the patch would look like. And yet another thing is I want a score that's not easy to get, but also not outrageously hard, either. I don't know. Anyway, what I did was bring back the uneven horizon, along with the outhouse. There was a bug in version 24 that I think I got. After a certain number of color changes on the title screen, the screen briefly changed the background color from all white to in game colors! I don't know why, I suspected it had something to do with the v variable still adding even when it wasn't supposed to. So I did all this in batari Basic, with a 2k limit, and I have 3 bytes left. And what's even more interesting is I have a stomach ache now (sadly, not diarrhea. That would have been a scary coincidence, having diarrhea while working on a game called Explosive Diarrhea.) I shouldn't have eaten that whole bag of frozen corn all at once. I guess it's kind of like peanuts. I can only eat so many before I have a pooping problem the next day. So here's 4 snapshots of version 25. I fiddled with that pesky potentiometer again and just got the correct colors. For a while it was showing only black & white with the color switch on. But I fiddled some more and it looks almost exactly like it does in Stella. Too bad I have a broken B&W/color switch and I have to use a pen to switch it from b&w to color.
