Finally got to adding the next page of 2600 101:
http://alienbill.com/vgames/guide/06happy.html
At it's core it's just the "move a missile graphic
with the joystick" but moving a player graphic instead.
To liven it up I combined it with "thin red line",
and when they collide it changes the background color
to match the player's height.
Thanks to B.Watson, I stole his jpeg NTSC colorchart.
Any comments/suggestions for the prose or the code
are more than welcome. I figure one more page on
"Player Buffer Stuffer", then a first stab at
"the 2600 cookbook", and I'll be ready to call
it version 1.0, and look for a plug (and maybe a new
URL) at atariage.com....man, that's such a good site.
