Bitmaps don't work with apps? o.O There is nothing in the documentation to suggest that, are you sure they don't work?

I used and it showed up random garbage. It will work if you copy( the pic data to L1 or so, but then, you can't have really big images (since L1 is not the whole screen)

Huh thats weird, I guess it needs to be pointing to RAM then, probably should be noted in the documentation :P Either way if you are only using 24x24 sprites it should be fine right?

Yeah. Btw, If you use L(X), you cant use that for storage of course.

Lol. If you use L(X) for the pic, you cant use it for other data (like extra vars)

Ooooh gotcha XD its only 72 bytes for a 24x24 sprite tho, so it shouldn't be too bad.  You could even create an appvar if you really needed to, the user should always have 72 bytes of RAM free :P

You can #realloc(pointer to some 54 spare bytes you have lying around), and then L1 is 768 bytes :)

I recommend against the bitmap command, because it's much slower than regular 8x8 sprites. (Bitmap was written by TI, after all :P)

By the way what is Doodle God? ???

methinks that bitmap should be fine, though, because the game doesn't put much emphasis on speed, as it's a puzzle game...

Hmm interesting, I think this would be a nice game for calc. Is there a time limit to find elements?

Sorry guys, the two month time limit just wasn't enough for me. I still have very limited knowledge of how to use axe and my mind is dead on thinking up creative ways to solve problems on how to do particular things in games. Considering that I also was programming on the computer, and my wabbitemu suddenly failing to work properly, I failed to complete something substantial by the deadline, and my posting activity has decreased too.

Hey, no worries. The whole point of this is to create new games. I can't wait to see this one when it's finished.

I'd love to see it, too! And even if you don't end up finishing, you've brought a great idea to the community that maybe someone else could complete if you are unable to!
There's something about Tuesday...
