Notes/bugs in the video:
some words are muffled. still learning how to do voice recordings.
sound will probably be more consistend when I don't have to create a pillow fortress for use as a recording studio (with cats included)
40 columns and 25 rows, not the other way around!
a note on the colour location in bitmap mode: Hires has color data located where the text mode screen data is located, not at $D800. Same goes for multicolor, but it uses $D800 as its extra colour data.
