I too am very pleased with the game (Although I have difficulty
getting through more than 2 levels, I'd hate to try and _make_ one).

I have one suggestion though:  Once you get familiar with the
smaller object representations that you get with the full map,
it would be great to be able to play the game while looking
at the full map.  The I/O would be greatly reduced (it'd be
reasonable at 1200 baud), and you can see all around you without
the really obnoxious screen shifting.  I've been wanting to do
this myself ... along with about 100 other items on my things-to-do
list.
