Notes:
- Sprite zoom is probably not 100% accurate.
In pspikes, the zooming text during attract mode is horrible.
- spinlbrk: enemy sprites sometimes shows 1 pixel off on bottom if they are covered by big objects,
such as:
- tank boss in stage 1;
- trenches in Greece stage;
chip 0 draws player sprite, chip 1 all enemies. Assume btanb.
pspikes/turbofrc/aerofgtb write to two addresses which look like control
registers for a video generator. Maybe they control the display size/position.
