Writing code that changes the colour of a freely moving sprite
always at the same pixel is practically impossible. This trick
only makes sense for stationary objects. I don't know of any
games that change the sprite colour while it is being drawn,
but Qbert changes the playfield colour several times per scanline
for displaying the pyramid.
