After the game has loaded, this is where it all starts.

8400 | DI | Disable interrupts | ||
8401 | LD HL,$5BFF | Place the address of the routine at 869F on the stack | ||
8404 | LD (HL),$86 | |||
8406 | DEC HL | |||
8407 | LD (HL),$9F | |||
8409 | LD SP,$5BFE | |||
840C | SUB A | Set HL=8500 in a roundabout way | ||
840D | LD L,A | |||
840E | XOR $0A | |||
8410 | LD B,A | |||
8411 | INC B | |||
8412 | LD H,B | |||
8413 | RRC H | |||
8415 | LD C,(HL) | Read through addresses 8500-FFFF, without changing their contents; perhaps this code was once used to descramble the contents of pages 0x85-0xFF, but now all it does is introduce a pause of about 0.47s before displaying the code entry screen | ||
8416 | LD A,L | |||
8417 | XOR C | |||
8418 | XOR H | |||
8419 | LD (HL),C | |||
841A | INC HL | |||
841B | BIT 7,H | |||
841D | JR NZ,$8415 | |||
841F | RET | Make an indirect jump to 869F |
