Hm... the horizon is not definite yet, though it is a bit early for me to see if it influences the gameplay. I have a few plans to enhance the game, which will counteract against the lost bufferspace I hope: For example I will try to have more water mines onscreen than the arcade (...triple copies...). And, like in Seafox, I'm planning on reflecting the torpedoes if they hit the Red Cross ship. And finally I'm considering some more free movement for the sub, so that it can also move somewhat vertical (...Polaris...). BTW: More Seawolf ports discovered: Commodore also licensed it for C64 and VIC-20 cartridge versions.
