Indie Retro News: Heartlight - A Spectrum port/remake of a Polish Boulder Dash clone

If you played the xLand Games Boulder Dash clone ‘Heartlight’ back in 1991-1993 for Atari 8-bit, Amiga, or PC, you’ll be excited to hear about the new ZX Spectrum port remake of the game that Ralf has just released. This new game has been shared with the community as a Christmas gift, and we’ve got more info from the developer as well as a gameplay video.

Here’s what the developer had to say about Heartlight on the Spectrum Computing forums: “Some time ago I decided to make a Spectrum port/remake of the game called Heartlight. It was quite well known in Poland in its time (I’m from there, you know?) and even got an international release. Has anyone here heard of it? It’s a clone of Boulder Dash with several twists, more focused on puzzles than action. All the gameplay happens on a single screen with no scrolling. The early levels are rather easy, then it becomes harder. My Spectrum version was 95% complete for 3 years or so and gathering dust on my hard drive until I made the final touches recently and released it today.”
