What was wrong

So I decided to work on Nice Ice some more even though I was incredibly sleepy after staying up all night. I am even more incredibly tired seeing as how it's noon. Anyway, I somehow got the bright idea that to end the constant explosion noise, to call a blank noise. That way it would shut up. So I did, but then the ice wasn't moving. So I put in some code that turned the ice moving timer to 0. And that worked. And despite the upgrade to a fancier title screen, I only have used 1,982 bytes. This means I have about 50 bytes to figure out how to make the ice move gradually faster as more time is spent playing the game. But that will wait for another day because I am once again burned out on Odyssey 2 programming. And I can have Bubba's Buck Blastin' on VHS after all. Another bright idea of mine was to play the DVD of the game when it's finished on an X-Box 360 hooked up to a VHS player and then press Record on the VCR. Why I didn't think of that sooner, I don't know. Anyway, I just got a 3-pack of VHS tapes for the finished thing. I don't know if I'll need any more ;) Probably need about 10 or so. I mean, who now has an ActionMax and a VCR any more? Also, the January 2014 of the 2600 Scene is online. It's a 4-pager about Pigs In Space.
