Last year, 10tacle studios announced that they would be releasing Boulder Dash for the PSP and DS. For the guys unfamiliar with the game, Boulder Dash was originally created in the 80s for the Apple II, MSX, ZX Spectrum, Commodore 64, and Atari 400/800 home computers.

The game puts players behind the controls of Rockford, whose job is to dig through caves collecting gems and diamonds while avoiding hostile creatures and falling rocks. Fast forward to today, we we have received new details for this upcoming game, which has been renamed Boulder Dash-Rocks!:
  • Completely revamped in-game graphics
  • Release date moved to the fourth quarter 2007.
  • The game will feature tools to help the players on their diamond-collecting, such as bombs and laser guns - the latter can be loaded with different types of ammo.
  • Each laser ammo has a different characteristic: some have the ability to freeze enemies, while others pull objects towards the player.
  • Five game modes: Single-player, Multi-player, and three other TBA game modes.
  • Unique game modes for the PSP and DS (TBA).  
Just keep posted as 10tacle reveals more details on this upcoming game in the near future

Wow, this is good news.
A more interesting game than this is hard to find.
Bringing new life into this classic is a splendid idea.

Yeah, this rocks!
