We should try expanding the Dink Engine as well as making more d-mods. Part of what holds me back is that my creativity is cut down by the screen-by-screen system. I we had an optional engine modification to allow sidescrolling in a larger area then I would start looking up all that stuff that DinkC does.

I don't mind the screen-by-screen thing at all, but I'm more irked with the limit for global variables. Sure we can always try to use them sparingly - as we've done for the past 11 years! - but it's one of the issues which makes planning large-scale D-Mods such a huge bother in the end.

I don't think changing the limit is going to be possible with the current engine, ever, but I had to mention it anyway
