"Unfortunetelly A500 will not be enough for this game, as Bridge Strike will require a faster CPU. 020 should be enough though"

Don't get me wrong, the game looks SPLENDID and looks to be very playable and I love RiverRaid so this will be great, but why does it require 020 CPU? I don't see anything that would really require it... vertical scrolling, small objects that move around and not many of them. I mean A500 could handle games with MUCH more going on, especially with vertical scrolling. Is the game made with a game designer or is this pure ASM venture? Just wondering...
