Scrolling Game is Rolling Along (Part 1)

I posted the beginnings of an Unnamed Scrolling Game in June of 2008. After trying the Nybble me this, Batman! tip to save variables, some of the code became too hard for me to understand and use, so I gave up on it for a while. I'd go back, do a little bit of work, give up, go back, give up, go back, give up and now it's 2010 and it's about time I figure out what this mess is and turn it into a game.

I recently converted a major chunk of code that needed changing back in 2008. I didn't know how to do it back then, but 2010 must be my lucky number because I got it done and with less code than I thought possible.

I just added my first real sound effect using data and now I have to see if adding more sounds using data and the stuff that goes with it will waste too much space.

I still don't know what the sprite is supposed to be. Is it a ship? A bug? Candy? A toy? I sure would like to figure it out because I won't know what type of sound effects to create unless I know what it is.

I may not know what the sprite is or what the game is about or what you're supposed to do yet, but at least real progress is being made after almost 2 years.
