Nice start.

>3. Advanced VCS Programming
>3.1 How can you display more than two players?

 3.1.1 Pseudo-sprites, or sprite-recycling
 3.1.2 Flicker: how-to, acceptable flicker, bad flicker
 3.1.3 Advanced multi-sprite kernels: pseudo-sprites plus optimized flicker
 3.1.3 Pseudo-sprites from Missiles using multiple copies and fine positioning

Also, each techinque should have one or more "reference" games. I.e:
sprite-recycling: Air-sea battle; bad flicker: Adventure.. ;-)

BTW.. have you seen that row of sprites in Kabobber!? :-)



Ciao,
