 Cool VGA graphics. If you are a Windows lamer, you must run Boulder under
  the DOS prompt in the full-screen mode (video mode 3) to see the graphics
 The guy you are controlling looks almost same as the one in the original BD
 Random levels with 512 rocks and 100 gems
 Every level is possible to solve
 The behavior of rocks and gems is just like in original Boulder Dash
 You can even push rocks
 You will die when a rock or a gem falls on your head
 New level is automaticly generated when all gems are collected

 Instructionz 


 Collect all gems and avoid the falling things (they falls really fast)


-
 Controlz 


 2 ......... down
  4 ......... left
  6 ......... right
  8 ......... up
  ESC ....... quit
  Any Key ... very strange behavior, usually like ESC - don't touch

 Its easier to use number pad so keep NumLock on

 Tipz And Trickz 


The levels in the game are quite hard. They are huge and full of rocks so some
good advices might be welcomed...

 The screen borders won't hold you, so if you walk through the right border
  you will find yourself from the left side of screen but you are a one line
  lower. But if you walk trough the upper border you will not appear on the
  bottom of the screen - in fact your guy will be somewhere in the depths of
  the video memory, but you are still able to walk past the rocks on the top
  line of screen. If you hold down the 'up' key for very very long time you
  will finally appear in the bottom of the level.
 The borders won't hold rocks and gems either so be careful!
 Just remember that rocks falls down. Sounds stupid, huh :-). But the point
  is that the falling rocks often blocks your way down. So good method to
  solve the level is to find a good path to the bottom of the level and start
  collecting there. A very cool way to use this method is to completely clear
  a few bottom lines from sand and then continue clearing just by holding down
  the 'left' key. When the left border is reached you appear on the right side
  but a one line upper.
 Avoid dropping gems under the bottom line of the screen. They will not
  disappear - you still have to collect them to complete the level. Finding
  them may be nasty. Check out the next tip...
 Every rock or gem dropped on the line 56 (which is six lines under the
  bottom of the screen) decreases the number of the remaining gems by one.
 Try to figure out the behavior of 'any keys'. They can help you out from
  bad situations

 Do what you like, but never say this is yours
 And of course I will not take any responsibility of anything. You use this
  program at your own risk
 No financial profit can be made with this program
