; starfield tiny -- Apple II Lores

; by Vince `deater` Weaver

; actually too fast

; 189 bytes - original
; 184 bytes - move DIVIDEND to A
; 173 bytes - move variables to 0 page. limits to 16 stars but that's fine?
; 171 bytes - adjust random # generator
; 170 bytes - can do sty zp,x
; 163 bytes - lose the cool HGR intro
; 161 bytes - re-arrange RNG location
; 158 bytes - ra-arrange a lot to remove need for XX
; 133 bytes -- undo opt, no lookup table, just raw divide
; 145 bytes -- init stars at beginning, so don't initially run bacward if Z=FF
; 135 bytes -- optimize divide some more
; 143 bytes -- add in different color star
; 142 bytes -- closer :(
;	trying all kinds of stuff, including using BELL for WAIT
; 139 bytes -- just made math innacurate (remove sec in sign correction)
