That's pretty hot... Not really feeling the lateral button layout or the back triggers placement.. seems uncomfortable... but then again, the NES had lateral buttons and I loved that.

Oh this was merely a metaphor. You see if the original pot is 30k, then when it's on 0 Ohm position the screen is white, on 30k - black. Now if you put 20k I it will never be fully black as if it was on 30k, therefore it's under-sensitive - because you turn the wheel the same distance but you achieve smaller resistance (20k, as opposed to 30k).
Let's apply this logic in reverse. If you're having a 50k the 2/3 way through the turn of the wheel you already reach 30k therefore your screen will turn black faster. This is what I meant by over-sensitive. Again = same turn of the wheel but larger resistance.
I admit it was a bad metaphor. Just discard it an use any of those, or better find 30k and be happy.
You explained it perfectly. Thanks

but you can put 50k or 20k, it will work but well be under or over "sensitive" so to speak.
Which is under and which is over?

you can't just "make drums": beepola is a frontend to several ZX beeper engines, so most of them are supporting drums (QChan, Tritone) while some are not (ROMBeep). Most of the time drums are only click drums so you just have to enable them (add 1 in the drum column) but some others supports variations. You generally can't modify the sounds of either the instruments or the drums, they are fixed by the engines. But some of them allows variations, like Phaser1.
You can get all informations on http://freestuff.grok.co.uk/beepola/help/intro.html
I actually found two "drums" with ROMBeep, using the two highest notes. they make a rather (dis)pleasing ( 
) percussive sound. http://chipmusic.org/sketchman3/music/l … t-zxbeeper 
(drums start @ 0:28)
Edit: Also, Special FX engine can get an "808 cowbell" sound using the two highest notes as well. hehe

Maybe I should make some room in the high end of the music and let the sfx occupy that space...
Ooooh... that does sound like a good idea, from a sound design point of view. Especially for a retro-styled game.

I appreciate your input! Do you think you could elaborate? This is my first time doing sound for a game so I'm very much looking for any help I can get. By "energetic" do you mean it sounds too upbeat or that there is just too much going on, like frenetic, or is the music too melody driven for your taste? Something else? Sorry to pry I just wanna do the best job I can!
Maybe a little of all those things. Looking at the game, i would imagine something more atmospheric and warm. It may be that the "bit" sounds are a bit too bright sounding to my ears. Too much treble? But then again, the composition style reminds me of Jill of the Jungle, and so do the visuals. it may be the gameplay itself that feels off to me. Not sure. But the best thing to do is to do what you like, at the end of the day.

Pretty neat. I like the health/attack system. It also feels vaguely reminiscent of Jill of the Jungle, which is really cool. The music and sounds seem... more energetic than is required for the gameplay, but it's enjoyable to listen to.
