While living in Poland, I bought my first computer in 1988, it was an Atari 65XE with an XC12 tape recorder. Loading Atari games from a tape recorder was terribly long, so in 1989 I installed Turbo Blizzard and the games loaded 10 times faster than normal I had Boulder Dash 2 on my first cassette and it was one of my favorite games, the Atari version is almost identical to the C64 version, later I played other versions of this game. Of course, I also had other Atari games, but in 1990 I bought an Amiga 500, then in 1993 A1200 and then a PC. I also had several consoles, and currently I have a PS5
Brilliant longplay. That game was much harder than it looks here. There was also a Boulderdash Construction Kit game, but I can't remember if it was stand-alone or came with one of the other games. I spent hours with that one.
I watched my dad play this for hours on end at home, learning how best to solve each level by watching him play, then later I'd play it myself too. I must have only managed to clear all 5 loops of the game (caves A/1 to P/5) well into the 1990s, when I was 14 or something. I find the difficulty balance in this one much better than in Boulder Dash I, I could make it to the fourth loop in that one I think, I think I kept getting game over on K/4 as I recall.
I think I remember more playing the first part, at least I don’t remember this title music. Also I don’t know what happens at 1:08.. but I think I remember that green ooze? But also not that it turned to diamonds. It’s been quite a while since I had my trusty commodore in use. Still have the computer, but sadly lost all the floppys.
What does it mean when the background briefly displays the little moving pattern? Not the flash that signals the exit portal, but that brief pattern that replaces the background.
nice game, I spent many hours playing it when i was a kid. The player here is very brave, but I suspect this was played with an emulator in slow motion right?? it shows really good control in some parts.
Some levels (I, M, N) can be done much quicker and with more diamonds. But I think the point here is in the word DASH! This guy makes it in one long dash flawlesly!

I don't know about C64 version, but in atari 130xe and probably atari 800xl and 65xe, the protagonist would die when barely touching those enemies(at the same frame)
Here is the answer (use translator):En atari si se puede, yo lo he hecho. Hay 2 formas que no te toque el cuadrado, una de ellas es no detenerse nunca y al no detenerse no te mata el cuadrado al pasar por al lado. Lo otro es que el cuadrado va siguiendo el centro del contorno (en ese angulo) y eso hace se pueda caminar por al lado.
These are the wrong rules of the game. This is too simple. In the original, you can't be with squares and butterflies. And the stones roll not only from each other, but also from the edge of the wall.
You normally can't but under very specific circumstances the "collision detection" will not trigger. It's all to do with how the game updates each square from left to right and top to bottom (basically, the collision/kill detection of the firefly only happens after it moves and "things" "move" in order from left to right/top to bottom, not simultaneously. If Rockford goes first (he's above the firefly) and moves into an adjacent square, then the firefly "moves" to a square that isn't adjacent to Rockford (as in the video), then Rockford is safe. It's rather complicated and I can't find the wiki that had it all in detail to link here). Also, the boulders falling from wall edges is a level-specific setting. It can be turned off.

The sights and sounds of this game bring back good memories! Thank you. 😄
This guy is the maestro. That was incredible
this game oozes playability and creativity still after so many years
this game came out the year I was born and I had this on a floppy disc along with the original Boulder Dash one of the best EA games for the C64
love the sounds!

The person who designed these levels were insane XD
It's actually one of the hardest games ever.
it was too hard for me back in the day, I was annoyed.
A mysterious guy Arno did walk through it back in 2007 to record this video. I was never able to finish it, too.
Made o look super easy to make you feel like you failed your childhood! LOL!
Yeah, and it's why this game never appears on the remake
Those butterfly things used to give me the creeps in this game. Funny when they got blown up by the lava stuff though.
Awesome precision! Good job!
That's awesome to watch. Perfect run. GZ!
Brilliant longplay. That game was much harder than it looks here.
There was also a Boulderdash Construction Kit game, but I can't remember if it was stand-alone or came with one of the other games. I spent hours with that one.
me too, amazing something so addictive with just a low powered machine.
This was my first Boulder Dash and of course my favorite one.
Loved this game as a little one, really good times! Thanks for the video. =)

brilliant game... and one of the few that actually still is fun to play... still waiting for at portable version of H.E.R.O 64
got a good version of boulderdash on the gameboy advanced. it has a classic setting which is a straight port from the c64 version
Love boulder dash 80 retro love... Forever...
Well played, sir. _Well_ played.
My brother used to play this game all the time, all parts of it. He was really good at it actuyally. I think he finished them all at some point.
Супер! Вспомнил детство! Днями на пролёт играли на Atari, ZX spectrum.
Wow. I really miss these games. I loved playing this. Why can't they remaster these? Wish I could play it now. My 64 games won't load any more.
had a friend that had Aspbergers that was a true king at this game.
Oh the happy memories. TY
As a
Thats, some Great play. Havent played it in over 30 years. Dont i ever got passed that a1 level
P1 i mean
Amazing play

When I was little I called the fireflies “kill-squares”

Simple superb game

Wysoka technika. Mistrz.
crazy squares of doom ...
Try it - it is actually sometimes possiblie to touch a firefly while moving without exploding :)
i never worked out what it meant when the dug paths show the flashing white lines..
Extra life.

Nie jeden Dżojstik się przy tym skatowało :D
Fast and accurate. Well done!
2019, still current! =)
crazy game
A second one? Whao!
Very nice
Hypnotic
Expert level Boulderdashing.
Played by Arno? Thought it was Jason Bourne.
1:05 What happened?
Level P will give you claustrophobia.
I think kinda the same game was made with Werner later. Only instead diamonds it was then bottles of Flensburger (Beer)
There is an Android game on Boulder Dash, that resemble original caves/levels, graphics and sounds.
The level design and craftmanship of this games makes todays games look stupid.
It's a game that's easy to learn but hard to master

Second computer game I disliked deeply.
First being the Pac-man.
I think similarities are there..
no 50/60 fps -- no likes ... disliked
