Boulder Dash 40th Anniversary - the story behind the game, with Peter Liepa

from Retro Titans - the giants of retro and indie gaming in conversation · host Phil Szomszor

Boulder Dash was released in 1984 - yes, that means it's 40 years old - and to celebrate we caught up with the game's designer and developer, Peter Liepa. Boulder Dash was included on the Evercade C64 Collection 3 release this year and, despite its age, still plays like a dream. Peter explains the origins of the game, what it was like making games in the 80s and the creative process he went through to bring this classic to our computer screens. This is a must-listen for fans of the toe-tapping cave digger, Rockford.    🔗 Links: Peter's website - brainjam.ca  Boulder Dash website - boulder-dash.com X / Twitter - @peterliepa   🎵 Music: Neon Gaming, by Dope Stuff Boulder Dash music, by Peter Liepa
