I can always provide a picture in the instructions for which blocks mean
what, and then just show the backgrounds (bit2-0) as a number. I should
have room for that.

I increment by 8 because that steps you through the various styles
(1-player, 2-player, wrap game, missiles on/off, hard/easy) without changing

Isn't it all there to begin with? I mean at its base even Surround is just
Light Cycles (or vice versa). You can always turn off the missiles and play
