== TODOs ==
The engine works great and has been serving us wonderfully for many years now, to the point that it can be defined complete.
However there are some very minor differences from the original executable which some people have reported (including, but not limited to, speedrunners):
* Fix timing routines overall, so that timers are accurate for speedrunners;
* Implement palette fading;
* Implement SFX fading;
* Implement automatic lower music volume when speech is playing;
* Take another look at the audio engine just in case something is missing;
* Fix font position on some parts of the main menu;
* Fix text cursor blink timing when writing a savegame name (too slow right now);
* Implement Save and Restore screen bars movement when scrolling;
* Implement the "Speed" section in the main menu;
* Play intro cutscene when selecting Restart from the main menu;
* ''Possibly rewrite the whole main menu from source code?'' (Our menu code is customly written and only takes inspiration and some resource loading code from the original)
* Implement pause button!
These tasks are currently being handled by [[User:AndywinXp|Bosca]].
