Respect - and good luck ;)

Even with 32kb RAM + 100kb disk I think pretty much everything is
possible. You'd have to ask yourself how much time are you willing to
offer for each computational step; for example, do you want to keep
all data (monster stats, item types) on the disk and retrieve data
only as needed - or do you prefer to get the most dazzling speed out
of the system and keep most things in RAM.
