Did some more work on the in-game animation sequences and some additional work on the easter egg.
SpiceWare's Blog
- fixed flipped DEMO message
- Modified music during knight sequence
- added a very rough-draft "knight chase off" sequence
- I think 6 of the 16 in game animation sequences are finished (0, 2, 4, 6, 7 and 12)
[code]0 launch up-right & leave left 8 variation of 0
1 launch down-right...
- Extended animation sequences
- Launch sequences towards all 4 players
How many of you have found the Easter Egg? If you need a hint,...
- Knight doesn't start marching until the king's death sequence is over.
- Modified Knight to be in sync with music.
- Rewrote Dragon Animation routines to support sequence data being stored in banks 5, 6 and 7. Tested by moving current animation sequences to the other banks.

By not using HMOVES for every line I could save 86 bytes from the HMOVE tables. Also, while the knight is onscreen, there's no need to draw fireballs...
Added espire8's excellent Knight animation sequence.
added a bit of smooth on/off screen for the dragon sequences.

Rewrote the dragon routines to support an animation sequence. Currently the fireball will always launch on the first pass as I discovered I used the wrong "center point" when I converted the frames. This means the following image moves left/right instead of remaining stationary when the flipped image flag is set. I'll have to run...
All the animation frames have been updated. Two have minor problems, the rest should be OK.
Changed the grey player to a red color so the color will contrast with the grey knight for the forthcoming round animation.
Also rearranged some bank usage to hopefully be able to implement the full...
