[BBC-Micro] A New Game for the Beeb! V1.1

[Thomas Harte]

This game is so close to being Electron compatible (or ElectrEm compatible, anyway)! If I've understood what's going on correctly, it first loads some sort of menu which is probably in Mode-7 because on ElectrEm it looks like http://members.allegro.cc/ThomasHarte/temp/BallGameElkTitle.png.

>From there it seems to depend on what keys I press. I haven't really figured out the perfect formulation yet, but sometimes it starts and runs perfectly (albeit slowly unless you enable the Slogger Turbo board or ElectrEm-fictional "full BBC Micro speed") other times it seems to incorrectly display in mode 4 or 6, i.e. lots of monochrome graphics and what should clearly be one character line of the display split across two lines...

It's asking a great deal, but any chance of Electron support in a future version?
