I saw an interesting question on the Atari2600 Nexus site.  How did they do Centipede with 128 bytes of RAM?  They kept track of where the mushrooms were, the score, level, number or lives, etc.  I'm a novice at programming Stella but it doesn't seem possible.  Could someone shed some light on this?
 
Thanks,
Dennis
