I suspect it scrolled very smoothly very fast?
It probably was just screen 4. You can use set adjust to scroll 8 pixels,
then manually copy the entire left/right one character (8 pixels). This
will give jerky edges, but you can mask them using sprites.
Maybe you know Space Manbow was made in screen 4 as well? Although they
didn't mask the edges with sprites... (although on a 2+ they were masked)
I can faintly remember Hydefos being in screen 5, but that one scrolled
very slow so there was enough time to have the VDP copy the screen (every
interrupt a little piece).
