Very good idea, you are sync with me!!
Exist a possibility for a MSX2 version (SCREEN5 or 8)?

I have no idea about MSX2, but as graphic improvements are allowed, I'll study the MSX2 specific modes. Which enhancements could be done? Which is the screen mode more similar to screen 2? Maybe a different palette?

Palette changes can be done even in screen 2. But if you want more MSX2 action, you can use screen 4 and the multicolor sprites!, or SCREEN 5, but hey, don't you forget that it must work in MSX1 too! ^_^.

Palette changes in sc2? Maybe you are talking about that second palette which is brighter? I'll take a look at screen 4 then
