The game is currently in development. It is playable but not completed yet.
Till then enjoy the game. Do send in comments.

Another nice polished demo of your ability to use FreeBasic to write a computer game. The hard part with a Boulderdash game I guess is working out interesting and challenging arrangements of block types for each of the games. I could imagine a really hard game would be where there was only one solution (set of moves) possible without trapping the miner or a gem.

@ BasicCoder2 . thanks for the feedback.

The hard part ... is working out interesting and challenging arrangements of block types for each of the games. I could imagine a really hard game would be where there was only one solution ...

Designing a single solution is more hard for maps of large size. Currently I just have some random maps for testing. Some easy some hard to solve. The 8th game is real tricky on the right side end.

Wow! The Style reminds me of QB Wetspot. Maybe someday you could make it use two players like wetspot. Its looking great and I'm looking forward to the full version.
