A 20-level "demo"? 0.o How big is the final game going to be?
Well, anything can happen, but my goal is 60-100 levels.
How big (bytes) is the game going to be 
If I had to make a good approximation, I would say 10 flash pages. I'm making good use of compression (thank you Iambian, BuckeyeDude and Runer112 for helping me with pucrunch), so it could be less.
Smaller than a gameboy rom  How fast is decompression?

Hey camnedmil are you by any chance this guy? http://benryves.com/projects/z80computer
No. I have looked at his design though. His is pretty much a full computer; my current progress is is a 128x64 lcd, 32k ram, and 32k rom. The 32k ram is actually a 512k chip with lots of address pins tied low. I'm going to do bank switching with that and find some way to quickly interface a z80 with an sd card. My goal is to get something the size of a calculator but I may need to actually get a final design and switch to smd for that.

It's definitely possible. I am currently working on a z80 computer. My current design could be miniaturized to calculator size if I switched over to smd and replaced the many 74 series ics with an fpga or a microcontroller. To run programs, right now I flash a 32k eeprom and use 32k ram. I'm probably going to add bank switching soon. If you want to start making circuits with the z80, take a look at z80.info.

Sometimes when I try to edit an archived program, it just goes to the homescreen and displays done.

Now that there's a mode with interrupts, is perfect grayscale asking too much.

So the hardware timers in the 84 are based on the crystal. Although how would you make an axiom for the crystal timers? I thought the hardware timers were inaccurate because the ones on the 83 run at weird speeds.

Does anyone know a good way to keep time in axe? I tried making an axiom for the crystal timers but axe doesn't seem to support interrupts for anything except the hardware timers which can be a bit inaccurate. Would it be safe to define an interrupt in axe and then have the axiom turn off the hardware timers?

Wow, I spent forever wondering why my physics engine wasn't working, compiled it with this version, now it works

Why didn't ti just put hardware to push the lcd contents through the usb port like they did with the 84. A full nspire in a viewscreen seems like overkill, could mean interesting possibilities though.

There's already an entry point because you can press ON+Enter in the program edit menu with zstart. I'm just wondering how hard it would be with all the edit stuff being open.

If it uses a pic, is it possible to use a protocol like i 2c on a port so we could easily make custom hardware? I've had some trouble interfacing i 2c directly with the link port. EDIT: punctuation fixed?

Is it possible to make a shortcut to compile with axe inside the program editor. When I'm done making changes, it'd be nice if I could compile from the editor instead of going to the program's name in the editor again.

My only complaints are that the fog key got removed and you can't hold right click to continuously place blocks. Endermen are creepier than creepers.

I'm doing what I can to keep ASM coding to a minimum.
