Boulder Dash Forum

Can't find words to say that ... https://i.ibb.co/pvm0y68t/Screenshot-2026-02-06-at-00-30-41.png Since Krissz seem not to react to my personal email for his site access, I'd ask here: where do players discuss on how to finish some BD levels (especially tough ones, based on Krissz engine that are 100...

I'm playing Trischi numbered set of caves (without skipping) and want to be sure if caves are finishable no matter old engine. This is cave 101 and fireflies are cycling from the beginning and I want to be sure if that is normal behaviour in this cave. At the start, they're facing down. Here's illus...

In the Discord channel someone wrote that there seems to be a problem with slime connected to the monitor refresh rate. Maybe try changing (reducing ?) the monitor refresh rate, e.g. 60 Hz. That worked! It was the monitor refresh rate, which is 120 by default on the modern macbooks. Thank you very ...

RnD with Gdash and Krissz engine support is the ultimate game for me, as well I'm same age as Boulder Dash, so just didn't want anniversary version to be missed. Upset of its quality, though.

Played it with my son today. Didn’t expected I’d face a bug in tutorial caveset though. Level 18 “the joy of slime” is unfinishable. Slime is too slow for objects to fall through it and I couldn’t collect a single jewel in the time provided. Was playing on a mac. Seen walkthroughs on youtube, that s...

Thank you for your answers and for info on the outdated RnD version — I was using 4.4.1.1 Where do you write information on the newly updated releases of the Krissz compatible version? On the Gdash thread there are no updates since 4.4.1.1 (why not update info there as well?) https://www.boulder-das...

Is it normal setting in Krissz compatible engine to snap elements diagonally?

Unbelievable. Like a lifetime stock of high quality vanilla bd levels that leaves you with the feeling that every cave idea was already designed. 1. Is there a limit for cave sizes in Krissz caves? 2. How do I change the tile size inside the editor like in Mona Lisa to make them smaller or larger? I...

Ofcourse not! Most of them are finishable. For the sake of Boulder Dash museum, all have to be kept!

Maybe in the future they will be compatible as well.

Can't stop playing newly added Krissz cavesets in RnD and have some questions on it: 1. Why Krissz engine levelsets are so much better and well designed than those, included into common BD levelsets? 2. Why same authors (like Arno) make separate caves to BD and Krissz levelsets? Won't it be easier t...

The best Christmas presents for me are (1) the new HoMM 3 HotA release with new bulwark town (2) the new RnD release with Krissz game engine support. Thank you so much, dear Artsoft! I've always dreamed to play those outstandable levels. They are so well thought and clever designed! Question is why ...

If to speak about the included levelset. I follow some youtube channels and observe awesome levels there, that I don't know where to get. I can't seem to find them in the provided archive. For example, Trischi83 and his awesome expert levels, like this one https://youtu.be/2XtrQqCsTLc?si=-gDOZ769KVN...

Thanks a lot for the new version! We've missed the significant date, which is 22th of May. It was 1 year since the first pre-release of 4.4.0.0, that is the symbol of a BD reborn for me. Can you help me with creating a new caveset? I'm forward to create my first levelset and don't how to start fresh...

Hello!

Is it ok, that collecting clocks leaves dirt behind? That stops rockford for 1 frame and makes it impossible to run through without being hit by the boulder.

Just interested. Is that how it really has to work?
