For what it's worth, my advice is:
Once you've mastered the fundamentals of Euphoria through ABGTE, you should
apply that knowledge by writing more of your own programs.  Please try not
to take offense but based on your 'Problem.ex', you've still got a bit of
practicing to do before you step up to a scrolling graphics game.  I
suggest that you take smaller steps.  Play around with graphics some more
and tackle the little problems you might expect to encounter before jumping
into a big project (maybe start with a non-scrolling graphics game).  When
you've figured out the solutions to those little problems, then utilize
that knowledge in your next, larger project/game.

Keep in mind that there is a large, searchable archive of code out on RDS's
site and a great community of individuals right here to help you when you
get stuck.

I've been coding for quite some time now but I'm still not sure I want to
take on a scroller project; but I know there are some examples in the
archives if I need some ideas...  BTW, if you already planned to do what
I've suggested (but just wanted to see what it takes) then I apoligize.
Just wanting to give some constructive criticism/advice.

Good luck,
 Brian
