Where are they?

Even the most spectacular recent port of Pinball Dreams from Batman Group that ran on a standard 6128 provided little to no details on how exactly they got the humble machine to achieve it.

All I got so far is that the game runs in Mode 1 to take advantage of hardware scrolling and a wider screen resolution, but if that is true, how did it override the 4 colour limit?
