Hello!

[I'm not familiar with *BSD386 nor with it's newsgroup, so please forgive
me, if I got the wrong one. :-)]

I wrote a clone of the B*ulder-Dash game, known from many homecomputers,
which currently supports LinuX and (with reduced features) Mess-DOS.
Support for X-Windows will be added during the next few months.
At the moment it supports digitized sound as well as high-resolution
VGA graphics in 256 colours.

The source code is quite well structured and should be very easy to port
to ANY other unix-like operating systems, as all system dependent parts are
divided from generic code.

I am wondering if someone familiar with graphics programming under *bsd386 
(or X-programming) would like to port it for *BSD386. I would do it  by
myself, but I don't have *BSD386 installed and more than enough work
with LinuX, but I will support anyone interesed in doing it.

Any volunteers who are interested, PLEASE send me email to the following 
address:
