Help me with making Project 16! (Developers)

You can take a look at any 16 bit open source game, such as Wolfstein 3D, or better, start looking at some low level tutorials.

I can recommend the SWAG ones: http://kd5col.info/swag/EGAVGA/index.html and the Asphixia ones: http://archive.gamedev.net/archive/reference/listed82.html?categoryid=130

Regards.
