you probably have to keep in mind the Sony has only 64MB of ram, probably shared for video too,and it also uses some of it; so your application can't use more than 32Mb of ram.
It also has 2Mb NOR ram,whatever that means, perhaps you're limited to 2Mb ram.


Other than that, an LRF is the best thing you can do!
Every chapter, every subtitle and every TOC has a reference name.
The html framework for the bible which I created in Notepad++,had slightly less than 5000 links and references and bookmarks in it.
The best thing you can do is create a simplified HTML,without any data concerning lettertype,or height,language or any other additional info (just <H1> or <H2>, or regular body text).

Stick with a head that has a title, and a body that has the info.
You can't link to an outward page on the reader, but you can on an inward.
if you create a document this way,a 5000 link LRF should work perfectly (with about 1500 bookmarks).
I tried directly to go from Ms Word to BD, but errors occurred.

As far as a game on the reader, I've been looking at one, but the creation of a game in LRF would only allow you to go for very simple games.
A page swap could get you to a whole new chapter in the game without playing it.

I was thinking about those text based DOS games, for the reader; but it would involve decoding the DOS with copyright, or creating one myself, and that took too long time.

The amount of pages would be very large,even for a simple game.

You could create hyperlinks for commands, so pageswaps to a certain page are not needed.

Please keep in mind ASCII art does not work on the reader,except if you find a good font that is compatible with ASCII art.

Also,before posting, keep in mind the Copyright!
You can however post how you created your game,for others to re-create for themselves.
