Well, I'm trying to make a text based RPG, so I'm going to need a lot of screens to describe the different rooms you're in. I also want to have different screens that show character status, inventory, etc., so your idea of having a subroutine and only updating variable values will apply there. My plan is to have at least 6 different levels (preferably 8). Is it possible to put picbasic code in the I2C EEPROM or does it not work like that? I'm not familiar with EEPROM and how it works.

No, that I know. However you can go with a PIC that has more program memory available. You can use this page to find the chip that you need.Originally Posted by emerson

That webpage is great! I think I'm going to try the DSPIC128MC804IPT. Thanks for the help.

PBP does not support that PIC. You might need to use another language like C32 from Microchip.

If you are planning to use PBP then you may want to look at supported parts for PBP.

Go with an 18F for new projects.

Ok, so I chose the 18f4620, I have a new question though. When you compile your program in Microcode Studio and it tells you in the bottom left corner that your program uses (in my case) 1632 bytes, do I compare that to the chips 64K bytes of flash memory? I'm used to it telling me how many words I've used, not bytes.
here is the datasheet for the chip:

Yes.
