Just wanted to report a (minor) glitch regarding the Star-Power-up:
When you get one,
kill some enemies it,
wait until the invincibility runs out,
getting a second star without killing an enemy "normally" between these phases, the enemy-kill-chain will just continue where you left off with the first star.

Tested with:
- Lunar Magic 3.40
- SA-1 Pack 1.40
- Snes9x 1.63, Bsnes-plus 05
- GPS 1.4.4

Notes:
- Removed macos metadata stuff from the zip
- Added some missing |!banks for fastrom support
- Converted one forgotten label in the included routine to be macro-local

Works as advertised, accepted. It might be nice to add support for Thomas's edible blocks patch, so Yoshi can eat them, but that's certainly not necessary. The included sample level also has its exanimation set up to use 4 8x8s: 16x16, instead of 4 8x8s: line, which incurs a bit more overhead, but that can always be adjusted by the end user.

Ack, I should stop the habit of using LDA $xx : TAX (LDX $xx) and using PHA : PLA despite the code doesn't ever use the high byte of A (XBA twice).

Thanks for improving my code.

Already existed in the form of "Faux powerups" but this one has better functions.
Made some changes and optimizations to the code. Works fine otherwise.

Great Idea Green Hammer Bro! I like the idea of making sprites into blocks and vice versa. The reason why is because it can reduce slowdown.

no 1-up?
