== Pictures ==
* The game doesn't use hardware scrolling and uses a reduced screen and heavily uses the invisible areas of both screens to store code and data.
=== Characters and Enemies ===
* Characters and Enemies are stored as multiple sprite parts and are composed during drawing. Each part has a width, height, and signed x and y offset relative to the character's base x,y position . The base x,y position's origin is at the bottom of the feet on screen frame and a width and heightin the middle on the x axis. There is no clear separation between heads, bodies and legs. Some character frames are made of 4 or more parts. This can be seen in the walk and punch animation frames.
* Characters and Enemies are sorted by their base y position each frame. They are then so that the draw correctly when walking in increasing y coordinate orderfront of each other and to give a 3d look.
=== Sprites ===
* Sprite pixels are stored upside down in memory. Therefore left to right, bottom to top.
* Sprite pixels are stored as mode 0 with pen 0 as transparent.
* Sprite pixels are stored facing right only and flipped by code in realtime (e.g. the facing left sprite is a mirror of the facing right sprite.).
* 2048 bytes for tile graphics. These are defined per-level. These are stored at +&1e0 from the level data. They are copied from &31e0 in 4 parts. There are 128 possible tiles. Runtime ranges: &e600-&e800, &ee00-&f000, &f600-&f800, &fe00-&ffff.
* Tile graphics are 4 pixels wide and 8 pixels tall. Each tile's graphics uses 16 bytes. Tiles are stored uncompressed, left-right and top to bottom.
=== Sprites ===
* Sprites for all levels are loaded at once and use ~13KB. They are located at &4a80-&7fff in main ram.
