Yes indeed, with a clockwise FF, pausing at every corner, things would be a lot easier

Episode 23: Seven to Heaven (part 1) This episode includes a collection of several free-rider formations, which have a few basic properties in common: - They're composed of exactly 7 flies in total; - They move upwards; - They all have the same speed (5 frames per step). These similarities can nice...

About DBD 14, Cave O/4 (your video): Nice run! Your run shows exactly how to solve the two main difficulties as intended: (1) Releasing the third BF (from left to right) by snapping at the right moment. (2) Releasing the second BF from left with the help of another BF. BTW, (1) is a cavescanning or...

Dustin's Boulder Dash 14. Cave O - Snoococ/3 I have no idea what trick should be used to unseal the butterfly in the wall box. Place Rockford directly below one of the entrances of the wall box and wait for the butterfly to move into the corner, like this: WSS WBS WDE DRD (W=Wall S=Space D=Dirt R=R...

Great, thanks!

Dustin's Boulder Dash 12. Bonus Cave! - Hiscore Box L5 I still have no idea how to collect 18 diamonds. I only managed to collect 17: You're very close! Actually, it's the very last butterfly where you leave the missing diamond: Your method: gets you 3D from that butterfly (+4, -1) Better method: F...

Ah yes, and "besides", Dustin's BD 25 is out on the Game Base! Quite late, but... Release soon, likely in June or July (of this year, of course) :D ...still inside my announcement ;) Have fun with my jubilee! Thanks Arno for the release! And for those who seek the challenge, I'm confident ...

It was dificult, but I overcame it! Great, congrats! :thumbsup: Actually, the solution you found wasn't even intended :D :idea: (And BTW, I had a flash of laughter when the sound effect came after the wall was opened!) :D Here's a video from Arno, showing two other solutions - first my intended one...

Announcement: Dustin's BD 25! Hi guys, it's time for jubilee as DBD25 will come out soon! I still remember that when I started the series, I thought I had enough ideas for two, maybe three episodes... well, it's become a bit more by now! :D It's going to be another 5-level classic game with standar...

Episode 22: One Busy Bee Here we go with a new unique DFF, after seeing two sets of free-rider formations in the previous two episodes! And the inner mechanics of the DFF we're going to see is different from everything we've seen so far in this whole thread. If we have learned so far that DFFs are ...

Thank you guys


Yes, I meant Marc de Haar indeed, sorry.
@Arno: ah, yes OdO says me something, and his Lost Levels too. So that's him, alright, thx!

@Logic: yes, I had something like that in my head, that's why I found it unlikely that it could be No1. Thx!

Thanks artsoft, both for your feedback and the update of the cave pack!

Hi all! :) I've just read the name "Marc de Haas" for the first time in the intro screen of the old fangame "Xmas BD 2001" made by five different BD fans. I know who the other four are, but this name I've never heard of before, so I wonder if it might be No 1's real name!? I thou...

It's on the Game Base! Thx Arno and happy digging everyone

Dustin's BD 24 is on the way! A brand new game of the Dustin's BD series is coming out soon, again with the familiar 5-level system and, this time, rather moderate difficulty with emphasis on neat cave designs! As always, here are the cave names as an appertizer: A - Poledance B - Olympia C - Amoeb...
