This is a normal post My guess is that they're all sprites, but they use some kind of transparency/opacity trickery
so any 3 of the numbers we see could be made up of 2 actual sprites (or even 1). Somehow.

This is a normal post I was thinking maybe some precise interrupt timing.
But I was never expert in C64 hardware.

This is a normal post When the numbers move to the top of the screen, the group of numbers moving completely horizontally at the back is definitely one sprite
(at the back, behind the others)
But that the only obvious trick that this non-coder can see
