Change gametype? I mean... Do deathmatch? and do splitscreen, 2 players in same scren doesent work. The screen bug sometimes on 2 player like nobody is in that screen...

uh... thats a little hard to understand

players have to be within 15x15 tiles of each other for it to work, and split screen isnt available, but is aparently on holgars *to do* list

and technically, there isnt a deathmatch mode, but you can still fight each other if you want to, it seems pointless adding a whole new mode for something that can already be done

and the players need to be different colors, by default, player one is yellow, and player 2 is red

i still have no idea what you were trying to say, but hopefully i explained it

"Deathmatch" mode are already possible when placing two players on the same level, give them some weapons, and then fight. See some Multiplayer Fight levels for examples.

Splitscreen, etc. have been mentioned before, and isn't highly prioritated, but might come in the not so near future... if you are lucky...

Remember that RnD, or Boulder Dash games in general, are most enjoyable to play just on your own. Just in single player mode.

Now you know what would bring deathmatch alive? The internet! Would't it be cool if we could all play on the internet, maybe even... dare I say it? Have 16 player support online where we could all mine in the same level and blow each other away with bombs and all sorts of CEs?

It's already possible, but with a maximum of 4 players.
Go to the RND Chat, sometimes maybe someone in their is feeling for a little RND "Deathmatch"

but multiplayer is still very slow. and of course multiplayer levels are cool but what I meant is that I prefer single player levels myself!
