[WIP] Step (a scifi adventure game)

I think I've finally managed to update my game engine to allow for chapters/games larger than 16KB (Step's three chapters were basically independent games on separate pages, but with a shared Huffman decoding tree on the shared code page.)

However -- scanning for items currently on the player's location means flipping the memory page hundreds of times in quick succession. It works on emulators (BlueMSX, OpenMSX 0.15.0). I have no clue how real hardware would react. Does anyone dare to do that at their own risk?

As a slight change from the MSXdev entry, the opened probe now has its own picture, but there's very little more done on the outside to differentiate this from the contest entry. I may edit the graphics a bit for added detail now that I don't have to worry about space, but I don't see the game itself getting extra content.

I can confirm what Grauw said. Freedom Fighter physical release uses frequently page switch (fir example, during prologue and epilogue sequences pages are switched inside the isr) and during the game action whenever you pick up a power up pages are switched to execute the powerup routine and then switch back to actual bank on use (digferent fro each level).
So don't worry about it
