Details

http://martusewicz.w.interia.pl/eindex.html has a GPLed clone of Boulder Dash. No idea if it's any good, but it looks like it might be relatively easy to port to Rockbox.

Probably best to start by e-mailings the clone author to check legal issues (graphics/levels).

linuxstb has first dibs :-)
This task depends upon

I hate to admit it, but Xciting Xcavations should be Exciting Excavations

Comment by Alex Parker (BigBambi) - Tuesday, 18 March 2008, 19:31 GMT+1
Yes, clearly we know that Xciting Xcavations is really spelled Exciting Excavations, but it was changed to use X in a failed attempt to find one to start with X.

Besides, as Frank said in the first place, it was the result of a _brainstorm_ ...

Rocksprint. Clearly this preserves the general feel of the old naming, while simultaneously meeting the much reviled desire by many to name our plugins either Rockfoo or BarBox.
