Hehe.
Sorry this “must” also stay as it is. I guess I’ll build a new trend than – 4 entries.
A bit of a history… Originally I wanted your suggested five entries.
I did not have enought time to display them in 50Hz (my display routines were to slow). Also I did have some RAM shortage at that time. So I implemented 4 High Scores.
Than … probably months later – I implemented better routines – and the speed problems were gone, I think also the RAM was organized more efficiently.
But I didn’t change the high scores, because something … hm … else.
Later in testing Ollie found the high score too “boring”… So I implemented the
- music
- background stars
- and the flying ships around the scores
All of which I like pretty much. But I kept adding stuff, till I hit the 50Hz barrier (again).
So… even if I wanted to – I couldn’t add an additional fifth high score entry, because the display as it is would not allow it.
Sooo you see – I am totall innocent – my hands are tied…
