Yes. And this is a problem: a very good idea that I cant use...

The original method used in atic atac would work fine I think...fix it up a bit with maybe your guy in the middle in a "from above" perspective.

How about having a static tunnel screen with the computer controlling the player falling from the top to the bottom of the screen, then the room below appears and the player falls from the ceiling and lands on the floor, the game continues

Also! On the original Atic Atac, you always land over a carpet. That works also as an indicator that you can access that room via a trapdoor.

Never noticed that...you learn something new everyday etc.
