THE BRAND NEW dustin'S BOULDER DASH 22 IS ON arno'S GAME BASE! ENJOY :D  
  
INTRO TEXT:  
WELCOME TO dustin'S BOULDER DASH!  
THERE ARE SOME BUTTERFLIES TO SMASH  
THEN AN AMOEBA FILLS THE STAGE  
THE NEXT ONE MUST STAY IN ITS CAGE.  
A MONSTER WALL IS THERE TO BREAK  
AND THEN THERE'S NOTHING YOU CAN MAKE.  
THE NEXT ONE'S TRICKY TO ESCAPE  
THEN THROW ROCKS THROUGH THE SLIMY TAPE.  
A ONE-WAY MAZE WAITS NEXT FOR YOU  
BEFORE YOU'RE TRAPPED AND NEED A CLUE.  
AFTERWARDS - THE SAME IN SMALL  
THE NEXT ONE'S NOT FOR SKILL AT ALL.  
QUICKLY LEAVE THE BOX WITH STRIPES  
AVOID THE FLIES IN NARROW PIPES.  
AFTER MOVING ROCKS AWAY  
THE QUESTION IS: HOW LONG TO STAY?  
ROCKS AND JEWELS BY THE PILE  
DON'T TRAP ME, LET ME GROW A MILE!  
A GREAT, BUT ALSO FRIGHTFUL SHOW  
A CAVE WHICH WAS MADE YEARS AGO!  
AND THEN IT'S TIME FOR SEPARATION!  
NOW WITHOUT FURTHER HESITATION  
I WISH YOU FUN WITH MY NEW GAME  
WITH CHALLENGES FOR HANDS AND BRAIN!  
  
A FEW (NON-POETIC) REMARKS:   
1. USUALLY MY dustin'S BOULDER DASH GAMES FEATURE FIVE DIFFICULTY LEVELS - THIS ONE IS AN EXCEPTION, ALL FIVE LEVELS ARE IDENTIC, SO THERE'S DE FACTO JUST ONE LEVEL. THE REASON IS THAT THERE ARE SEVERAL CAVES WHERE I THINK THEY MAKE MUCH MORE SENSE ON ONE LEVEL THAN ON FIVE. HOWEVER, DBD 23 WILL DEFINITELY HAVE THE COMMON 5 LEVELS AGAIN!  
2. I THINK THE GAME IS CLEARLY HARDER THAN THE USUAL LEVEL 1 DIFFICULTY, SO ROCKFORD STARTS WITH 10 LIVES INSTEAD OF THE USUAL 5. I THINK IT'S STILL VERY CHALLENGING TO BEAT THE GAME FROM START TO FINISH WITHOUT A GAME OVER, ESPECIALLY ON YOUR FIRST TRY WHEN YOU DON'T KNOW THE CAVES YET! ON THE OTHER HAND, OF COURSE, YOU CAN ALSO IGNORE THE LIFE COUNTER COMPLETELY, BECAUSE, AS USUAL, EVERY CAVE AND EVEN INTERMISSION IS SELECTABLE!

ABOUT THIS CAVE IN PARTICULAR:  
  
THE ADVENTURE STARTS WITH NOISE -  
IT'S CLEARLY THE AMOEBA'S VOICE!  
  
REMARK: THE ΘΘΘ IS ORIGINALLY COLORED GREEN (SIMILAR TO THE ΕΕΕ COLOR). NOTE THAT IN GDASH, EXTRA COLORS FOR ΘΘΘ AND ΙΙΙ CAN BE SET.  
I THINK THIS VERSION WITH RED ΘΘΘ GIVES THE CAVE QUITE A DIFFERENT LOOK :D  
  
THE CAVE IS INSPIRED BY NO ONE 15, CAVE I (NOT YET UPLOADED HERE, BUT I ALREADY RECREATED IT IN ADVANCE)! MORE NO ONE- INSPIRED CAVES WILL FOLLOW ;)
