Worth a read: The creation of Boulder Dash
A new article on Spillhistorie tells the story of how the legendary game Boulder Dash was created. In an interview with Canadian developer Peter Liepa, one of the game's co-developers, we learn about the background to the game – from Liepa's early experiences with computers to his groundbreaking approaches to level design.
The original Boulder Dash was developed in 1984 by Peter Liepa and Chris Gray for 8-bit Ataris, followed by conversions for the Amiga, Commodore 64 and many other platforms. In early 2025, the anniversary edition Boulder Dash 40th Anniversary was released for modern gaming platforms.
The article shows that the combination of a clever puzzle idea, fast-paced gameplay and user-friendly design contributed significantly to its worldwide success. (nba)
