51521: Make the game run faster
Used by the routine at Init_Title_Screen.
This routine is called at the start of each phase, and makes it faster than than the previous by decreasing the wait time. This starts at 1280 (slowest) and is decreased by 64 for each call, so things generally open faster.
51521 PUSH AF Remember some registers.
51522 PUSH HL
51523 LD HL,(52764) Get the current speed.
51526 LD BC,64 Subtract 64 from it. (The AND A clears the carry flag so SBC gives the desired result).
51529 AND A
51530 SBC HL,BC
51532 LD A,H Is the speed now zero?
51533 OR L
51534 JR NZ,51539 Jump forward if not.
51536 LD HL,64 The fastest speed is 64.
51539 LD (52764),HL Set this as the new speed.
51542 POP HL Restore registers.
51543 POP AF
51544 RET
