Remarks
     Port of Matt Round's javascript game. Einar recalls: "My first implementation had an Assembly routine to display images instantly, but it didn't feel right. Then I rewrote this conversion in 100% Sinclair BASIC using PRINT statements, to obtain a more authentic 'early classic game' feeling."
