Well I meant more along the lines of something that doesn't scream "calculator" as much. Something you can carry around in your pocket without as many people looking at you funny

A calc actually looking modern enough for >2010? What is this.

Still has the AAAs tho...

I'm wondering how similar it is to the prizm. Might some sort of cross-compatibility with a virtual keypad or something be possible?

1. Omni="all" Maga="magic" iirc
2. They started here: http://z9.invisionfree.com/omnimaga/index.php?showtopic=5&view=findpost&p=5353270 and it went nuts
3. something like above post
4. Other sites have IRC as part of the page as well..TI-Planet, Cemetech, UCF, probably more

It depends. Do you want to have external levels, with different maps etc?  Or do you want to have it hard-coded in to the program?
Appvars are easily made, deleted etc and are good for external levels, but you'll have to get the pointer yourself with GetCalc() and manage it (which honestly isn't very much )
If you want to have it as something built into the game itself you can make the program, then recall the source of the exported program into your own source (2nd > Rcl > find the unarchived program in the menu).

You'll want to do a tilemap. The tiles themselves are sprites.
For the sprites you'll want a sprite editor. There's a ton of those around here, take your pick
Tilemaps are kind of complicated if you're new to programming, but you can have a look around the tutorials and feel free to ask for help

Gimp's pretty worth the learning curve imo

Paint.NET's good too if you don't do much graphic stuff. Also it's better at small, aliased, z80-graphscreen-style fonts
Windows-only tho.
