Whereas the ST has only one type of RAM and it can use it all for whatever. I think that probably creates an advantage for the ST.
You get back to the : "you need to split every sprites asset and levels assets".

that's what it is.

Or else, you go for a software renderer and you use fast ram to get the maximum speed out of the 68000.
