Goals

Create documentation for Speedy Blupi (Epsitec)

Create ultimate specification of Speedy Blupi/Eggbert games and its related utilities

This specification should be as sufficient as possible to recreate these games.
This specification should completely include all the details related to technical information for graphics, sounds, cheats, hacks, bugs, behaviours.
This includes also recording videos of the game play - representing various situations of Blupi to preserve the rules, how the game works, for the future and also as the specification.
Identify SB1 and SE1 screens and their buttons and other items on the screen
Identify SB2 and SE2 screens and their buttons and other items on the screen
Identify SB1 and SE1 sounds
Identify SB2 and SE2 sounds
Identify SB1 and SE1 music
Identify SB2 and SE2 music
Describe the custom made save format (BLP files)
Describe the custom made user info format (BLP files)
Describe the custom made demo format (BLP files)
Document mods for Speedy Blupi/Eggbert games (record videos, describe levels, describe modded graphics/music/sounds)
Record videos playing SB/SE 1/2 (all possible situations) and save them to Open Eggbert channel and videos.openeggbert.com

levels, demos, screens, various situations, animations
