Coming full circle

Last night whilst getting ready for bed I was subconsciously pondering the circular wipe for Lode Runner on the Neo Geo, and I had a "Eureka" moment! My memory of certain Neo Geo technical details is a little hazy after a year or more of absence, but I think I have hit upon an easy way to implement it, thanks mainly to the hardware functionality of the Neo Geo sprite engine!

I'm tempted to pick up Lode Runner again and see if I can finally fix the AI bug and just knock off the project, sans sound. I did have Asteroids on the top of the to-do list, but at the end of the day, it's still another project that needed finishing off.

Watch this space...
