What a delightful post.
I remember finding this game and thinking about the underlying algorithms like this. It’s great to see it demystified and the possible LCPs opened for enjoyment.
Ironically, the original game would have been a lot more fun and replayable if the creators added a tool like this themselves.

thanks for the post. my favorite c64 game as a kid. pretty sure we had a wilbur, but it couldve been elliot. doorbell
tried making lcp remixes of the house image using midjourney a while ago, to not great results. i was thinking with a remixed vision of the lcp house, wouldnt be too hard to make a remixed game based on it, no?

I got as far as manually upscaling the house, and the LCPs:
