I have some experience in both sprites and in graphics on the c64 and can 
translate between the two systems (c64 and Apple II). However, sprites on 
the c64 are insanely fast and detailed and are supported in hardware.

And I would go with double lo-res at a minimum despite what this "requires". 
Double lo-res is trivial to work in and quick as lo-res. But I won't comment 
further without hearing from you.

Have you done any c64 programming Rich? I assume you are going to put this 
project together and maintain it.

I'll do the graphics code for you Rich, but only if the game is in C. cc65 
would be a good bet for this one I think.
