Hi there,
My name is Donald and I'm from Belgium.
I don't know where this should be posted so I'll post it here.
As a kid I became a Boulder Dash fan while playing the originals on my C64 and I especially loved BD2.
Those were the days when graphics were still inferior to actual good and challenging gameplay
A while ago I stumbled upon Boulder Remake and the great oldskool graphics Arno made for it.
It felt great to relive my childhood but I was even more excited to find out it had an editor! (I never had an editor as a kid)
I decided to give it a try and make my own set of caves.
Here it is:

I added a text file with some info, a basic story and the names of the levels.
The name of the game and the story are cheesy, I know, but I like cheesy sometimes.
Have fun
Temple of the Eagle (for Boulder Remake)

Hi Donald! Goedendag! or Bonjour!
Welcome to the forum and thanx for sharing your creation!
I'd like to try it out, maybe in the weekend.

177 views but zero reviews?
Please guys ... drop a line if you liked it ... or didn't
Speaking of reviews:
Arno, I'm currently playing your "Arno Dash 11" and I must say Cave E in that one is truly great.
I keep telling my wife how Boulder Dash is the best game ever because of the way it succeeds at creating such a vast array of different challenges with such a simple engine and that level is a perfect example of exactly that.
Instead of a challenge in dexterity, it proves to be a challenge in code-cracking
What I don't like are the "growing walls" levels, though, as they are more about luck than about skill. That's why I personally never use them.
Another reason why I don't use them is because my reference for Boulder Dash is the original BD2, which didn't have those.

Nice, challenging classic style caves! I like caves E, F and L in particular!
About the growing walls, I use them sparsely. I also find them annoying sometimes, especially when you have to guess where they are placed. BTW, BD2 does have a growing wall, in cave O. Perhaps you meant BD1 as your reference?
