How is this possible? Definitely not using BEEP

If you have been following along, you'll know I claimed a 100% disassembly of several ZX Spectrum games in my recent code archaeology endeavors. And it is true, BUT, the disassembly ONLY allowed me to recreate the original binary EXACTLY, byte for byte. If I added a byte of code to fix a bug, for example, it would break the build because everything would get pushed up in memory (and overflow by a byte in this case!)
Today I fixed that for Nodes of Yesod. Now, uninitialized data is no longer defined in the binary image. The Nodes code now uses BSS segments with RS statements plus alignment where necessary, and no longer forces everything into the DATA segment as DB statements.
The image shows the memory map changes. The speech area and the uninitialized area are both combined into RSS and used for runtime buffers.
As a result, today I fixed a bug that has been latent for 41 years!!! :)
It was a benign bug, but it let me prove the point by moving some buffers around in memory. Yes, the game still runs. :)
I plan on doing the same changes for the other 5 games.

Tharkys the Knight es un descarado "homenaje" a clásicos de Ultimate como Sabre Wulf y Atic Atac. Su creador, Jay-droid133, lo define como un pastiche para Spectrum hecho con IA y eso le quita algo de frescura y «alma» al juego.

I thought that I might add some colour to the little game but I think it looks better as designed, mono sprites, mono scenery. The graphics weren't designed with colour in mind, so it may be better to just make it all monochromatic at least for this first version.

This week on the blog: Some stuff I didn't get to in the ZX Spectrum tour. I've been trying to get better sound out of its 1-bit speaker and the results have been... mixed. I've still got some homework left to do but I got some *very* nice chord progressions out at least.

I'm thinking of using this little song I made a few years ago, repurposing it for the little Oakhollow game with the little knighty, if I can figure out how to play it in-game for the Spectrum 128k models with the AY sound chip.
