very simple clone. There are hardly any animations (only the rolling
eyes of the character you control) and there are no sounds. Also, you
can't run under a falling stone. If your score is high enough,
it will be listed in the online highscore

Boulderdash is a very good try to make an online game that nevertheless
gives you an idea about what Boulder Dash was like on the Commodore 64.
The graphics and sounds are almost similar to those from the C64
version. You can choose to play levels from Boulder Dash, Rockford's
Riot (Boulder Dash II), Boulder Dash III and levels by Alan Bond, the
creator of this game, himself. There is even a complete Cave Editor
included! If you rather play online than offline
games, as some people do, you should certainly give this a try! Please
note that the game only works in Internet Explorer and not in other
browsers, such as Mozilla Firefox.If you know more about a certain
game
or if you have a new game, new levels, music or whatever, please send
it to me and I will put it on this website! You can find my
