New episode of Boulder Dash remake by ZX Games

We called it Rockford Returns, as originally the third episode was supposed to be the last. Turned out, 288 levels isn't enough. The free demo-version features 4 levels. Whether you decide to purchase the full version or not, your feedback is welcome. You can contact us at mail@zxgames.com or post a...

I did let the amoeba grow as much as possible, but the problem is that there are still too few diamonds available for pick-up. I couldn't get even close to the required 50. Is there any way you can illustrate the solution you found?

Err... That's not me, that's our developer. It's not from our remake, but from an emulator or level viewer. Just to make sure it's from the original game.

Boulder Dash V. Cave H5. Impassable?

Good Monday, everyone. Has anybody ever accomplished this level? http://www.zxgames.com/image/temp/bd5-h5.png It seems impassable to me, as there is no way to collect the required amount of diamonds. Darned boulders block the way to most of them, and the rest if far not enough. Any advice will be tr...

I am not sure what problem you are talking about. Can't really remember any I would encounter when testing our game. Could you please provide the level map, so that I can easily find it and check?

Interestingly you seem to have already a game featuring Boulder Dash III caves. How did you solve this problem in Intermission 1 and Cave O then? As you could see at http://www.zxgames.com/en/boulderdash.shtml each episode of Boulder Dash remake by ZX Games features levels from two original games. ...

Thank you for your reply.

Do you mean that there is no way to accomplish the level unless there is a bug?

We are now working on the third episode of our Boulder Dash remake, so there is no bug to employ. Sounds like we will have to re-design the level, huh?

Yes, the contacted us and requested to mention them in a copyright notice, etc. Interessting. Is that all they wanted? No participation in the profit? You're right, they did want a certain royalty.

Tried it, but I didn't really care for it. I like how the boulders roll, but that's about it. I didn't play far enough to see the amoeba. I'm always interested how remakes handle it. The speed seemed to be really slow. The user can vary the speed by pressing "+/-", or in the menu (press &...
