Jinroh Posted March 8 Report Share Posted March 8 DJ Slopes has a great channel. This is a good retrospective, always interesting to hear the British view on the games back then. 😄 I would also recommend Peter Liepa's interview on the ANTIC podcast. https://ataripodcast.libsyn.com/antic-interview-66-peter-liepa-boulder-dash I was surprised when I heard he wrote it in FORTH. Not what I would have used, but it worked. 😅 RickR 1 Quote Free to download--> Carrot Kingdom™- - Released 5/11/2021 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Stilphen Posted May 31 Report Share Posted May 31 While the VCS/2600 version of Boulder Dash is technically very impressive, it doesn't play as well as the original due to the larger graphics creating a smaller viewing area. There's also some lagging with the movement, since the screen constantly has to scroll whenever you move. The upcoming Boulder Dash 2 version offers 3 different zoom modes allowing for larger viewing areas, which should help. I'd still like to see a VCS version of the original arcade version, The Pit, with some optional improvements to the gameplay.
