Congrats Andrew and Thomas on working to release an updated version - based on past information this was clearly a big step for you guys to go back and for the community to benefit again from your hard work.  Thank you ???

And great decision to do the new Boulder Dash as a unlimited run, so that the original run (limited to 200 carts) still keeps its value.

There will be significant differences in packaging/contents that make the original still a very attractive purchase.

As one of the lucky people who got to play the game during it's voyage around the world tour... I will be looking for the unlimited release in the AtariAge store.  I had a lot of fun during my week or so with the game... I didn't get enough time to really get good... heck I wasn't even decent at it by the time I was mailing it off to the next participant.

 

I remember writing my review of the game and posted my thoughts in that thread.  Some fun stuff there... it was such a fun idea and a fun project to participate in.  Glad to hear your work will continue to be enjoyed by more and more fans!  Congrats!

If this goes well, perhaps you might consider porting the sequel, Rockford, too. I played the dos version quite a bit as a child. It looks just like a re-skin (five re-skins, I think), but I am not a Boulder Dash expert so I may be wrong there.

 

I liked playing the doctor levels in particular.

I second this! It would be great to have the sequel on the VCS.

It's so neat that the original box states that the screenshot is an "actual game screen"! Oh, and a reproduction of that box would really be icing on the cake - crossing my fingers for the best, and hoping for a First Star Software logo to highlight its official Boulder Dash status!

Boulder Dash is not owned by First Star Software anymore, so that one is out.
