It's actually meant to be a graphical point 'n click adventure....it's my
engine so....for the sake of obscurity lets do it in 8bit assembler:
	push	es
	mov	es,[screen_segment]
	mov	esi,offset status_buffer
	mov	edi,game_screen_width * game_screen_height
	mov	ecx,game_screen_width*5
	rep	movsb
	pop	es
yeehaa! oh dear god, the horrors! :)
