this was don pedro's first fangame (maybe even t h e first fangame ever? i'm not certain)!  krissz  already uploaded almost all caves, but that was with the old engine and also a few caves are missing (probably because in these caves ^ must release stationary fireflies, which was a luck-dependant risky thing to do with the old engine). as we have boulder dash 1-11 with the new engine on this site already, it feels only natural to upload this one too :)

nice work  dustin ! :-D  
  
just one note: it seems that you picked the colors manually. actually, it is possible to select a color from the c64-palette, by right-clicking on any of the 4 colors.  
  
now the colors look a little bit different than in the original game. not a big issue, of course, but i was just wondering if you were aware of the c64-palette feature... ;-)

 Arno : thanx! :d hehe, i was about to say something about the colors, but then i thought i'd wait if you (or someone else) would comment on that :d  
  
actually i made another little color experiment for this game: i chose the colors according to the c64 wiki! just to see how different it would look... :d  
  
yes, meanwhile i'm aware of the right-click feature in the ckit. i didn't know that when i started uploading the official bd games (that's why i colored those according to gdash, and i even learned the hex codes of each c64-gdash-color by heart! :d)   
  
i'm going to upload tropyx bd12 soon, and this one will have the ckit c64 colors :)

Ah, that is it! To me These colors look so much different from the c64 or emulator that i really couldn't link them to some official SOURCE. :-)

yes, to me they look very different too! :d i wonder why/ how boulder dash used other shades. i would assume that, if the c64 had 16 different colors, then everything running on the c64 can only use the exact same colors!? :d

yes, the c64 has always the same palette of 16 colors, no matter what game or program uses them.  
  
well, it seems that there is no gereral consensus on what are the exact hex codes of the c64 colors. if I search on google i find various different sets of hex codes for the c64 palette. most of them look familiar to me and differ just slightly; only those of the wiki page look really different to me and i have no idea what is the source on which they based this particular set of codes... :-)
