Heya all,
I just stumbled upon this interesting nugget over the world of R'n'D, thanks to the power of DOS Box via online, you can play the game online from DOS Games Archive:

Keep in mind of the loud sudden starling noises when first starting to open up the game via DOS Box, it kinda made me jump. Also, at least for me, the game runs pretty slow when sampling some of the levels, probably because of emulation or because my hardware isn't strong enough to do stable framerates from it.
Seeing this makes me wonder, would a MS-DOS version of Rocks'n'Diamonds be possible on the latest version? I say this because I'm reminded of the MS-DOS port of Retro City Rampage, which unlike the NES prototype is the full game like the Steam and console versions of that game.
