HISTORY & CREDITS

Digger was originally developed for the KC 85/3 and KC 85/4. The program code was by Alexander Lang, the graphics were by Martin Guth, the title graphic by Stefan Dahlke. The levels were developed by Thomas Carstens, Andrea Ernert, Martin Guth, Alexander Lang and Heiko Schade.

NOTES

A delay between pressing keys and them taking effect can be caused by the X server not keeping up with the drawing requests for the blinking diamonds. Try -noblink if this happens.
