In this first episode of a new series, called MAKE A Thing, we attempt, to the best of our ability, to pick up Boulder Dash Construction Kit for the Atari ST and make a Pac-Man like Game. This is complicated by the fact hat I know almost nothing about Boulder Dash. Come along for the ride

Download the game we made in this video: Pacboulder.zip

How to use:

1. Load up Boulder Dash Construction Set
2. Select Play Game not Construct a cave
3. When it asks for a game name, put this disk image or a real disk of it you have made into your ST emulator
4. Tyoe “jeffgame” (no quotes)
5. It should start up and let you play he first 2 levels.

Instructions for making you own games

Use the Atari 8bit Manual at Atarimania.com – Don’t be fooled by the missing image for the manual, it’s there.
