   Heyas!   
      
   I didn't expect it to come so quickly but another milestone has been reached.   
      
   The CPU behaviours are all now finished (with some notes about possible   
   improvements) and all of the core functionality is now implemented.   
      
   I have been furiously testing, debugging and optimising as well and the game   
   seems to be quite stable now (all of the major functions seem to work   
   correctly in as many combinations as I've been able to come up with).   
      
   So, I'm happy to say that I have also moved the game into BETA status.   
      
   If you've been waiting for it to be stable to play, it certainly now seems to   
   be.   
      
   I'd love to hear from anyone playing it and about your experience.   
      
   Unfortunately, I am running quite short on memory and so a few items on my   
   TODO list won't make it for release but I'm hoping to get some more real   
   estate after another few rounds of optimisations.   
      
   I hope you will enjoy!   
      
      
   Daniel.   
      
      
   PS:  If you're interested in doing some stress tests or trying to check off   
   items on the "need to test" list then you may want to enable DEBUG_HEAP,   
   DEBUG_GSTATE and DEBUG_ACTIONS and compile.  Having those enabled will tell   
   you if anything goes awry.
