This is one thing that the SNES port does better even though it does almost everything worse. It doesn't have so much to do with animation frames as it does how the scrolling/movement was implemented.

I only mention it because it's open source and that might help someone looking to find well written windows drivers for a game. I don't know how specific the driver code is to the program, but I imagine it would be useful as an example to draw upon. Never seen tearing in a video game? That's what vs...

Seems overkill to me. Is it really that hard to differentiate main progress from a few backups with descriptions alone?
